My Precious Mother In Law, Mary that I miss so much, would make this amazing chicken, especially when she would have a luncheon. Ted and I were so delighted to have her make this for us. She finally gave me the recipe and oh my, I was so thankful! Super easy but does take a little time to cook. Add sliced fresh mushrooms to it to make it extra special.
