    I’m making this for the 2nd time, 1st time was great. This time I’m using sherry instead of red wine and honey mustard instead of brown mustard. (I’m cleaning out all my ingredients I haven’t used in a while.) I bet it will be yummy. Oh, I also added smoked paprika to the sauce.

    I made this for dinner tonight, it’s cooking now. I used white wine instead of red and honey mustard instead of brown. It smeels really good!

  3. This was wonderful. A definite remake. I used balsamic vinegar instead of red wine vinegar. Turned out great. I also added sun dried tomatoes the last 15 minutes.

  4. Made this tonight, it didn’t look anything like this whatsoever..it almost looks like you grilled the chicken first. I also don’t understand why yours is brown..mine was pinkish red from the vinegar and wine. It was just ok, wouldn’t make this again.

  5. I don’t like mushrooms. Can I use something else? Red peppers, maybe?

    • LaaLoosh Reply

      Absolutely. Red peppers would be great. Or, a mild vegetable like zucchini would be a comparable substitute.

  6. This dish is very good the day it is prepared –
    it is twice as good when prepared a day ahead. I only had 3/4 pounds
    mushrooms, so added a teaspoon of ground dried shitake mushrooms; also used my
    good Banyul’s wine vinegar. I served it with white rice made with sautéed spring
    onions, celery and Italian seasonings, and cooked in chicken broth.

  7. Made this this evening and my husband hated it. I thought it was OK. The next time I’ll either reduce or eliminate the red wine vinegar. It was too overpowering and I used the measurement noted in the recipe.

  8. I felt that the chicken was a little dry even though I cooked it for less time. Perhaps the temp should have been lower?

  9. I had the same issue with pinning but found if I put my cursor on the photo a PIN button comes up on the bottom left side. It will let you pin the photo & recipe

  10. Just made this for dinner! Such a great combination of flavors! Delicious!
