i took this as a starting point, doubled the recipe, added two cloves of garlic, some salt and chipotle pepper, dill, nutmeg, and a touch more wine. i used half and half so i had to thicken it with 1/4 cup of corn starch mixed with a bit of water. i also used chopped fake chicken which comes pre-cooked but somewhat bland so i simmered it in the sauce and served the whole thing over penne smart pasta with Parmesan. very tasty and addictive and possibly healthier since vegetarian chicken is higher in protein and almost fat free. really needs to be served with a simple salad and the rest of the bottle of white wine for balance. this would make a great romantic dinner.

This is a really great recipe, especially for adding your own blend of seasonings! I added some thyme, ground basil leaves, nutmeg, paprika, and garlic powder to the cream sauce and it turned out really yummy! I served it with French bread, crisp asparagus, and rosemary garlic roasted red skin potatoes. My boyfriend absolutely loved it :).

It was amazing! I didn't have any cream on hand or half and half so I started to look and see if I could make my own or substitute something else for it and I read somewhere that i could use condensed milk. It doesn't reduce down or thicken like it should but I just added a touch of corn starch and it was wonderful. My husband was practically licking his plate at the end telling me I could make this again anytime I wanted! I served it with a penne pasta and

I made this last night, just one half chicken breast. I had 8 oz. of sliced mushrooms, and I used them all. The recipe was low fat before adding heavy cream. I used Land of Lakes Nonfat Half and Half, and while it doesn't thicken like real cream, I reduced it until it was a wonderful glaze. It was super delicious. Next time I may add thyme to the mushroom mix. Thanks for posting it. It'll go into my "Favorites".
