This recipe is wonderful! I have a few picky eaters and they actually request this for dinner. It is so easy to make - I have committed it to memory and make it almost weekly.

This recipe is so easy and delicious! My chicken was perfectly cooked and so moist. I guess I've been buying too many rotteserie chickens from the market. I will be making this recipe often.

I absolutely love this recipe. I had originally cooked it for my girlfriend and myself to try and found that it not only was VERY simple but it was a great tasting meal as well. The gravy was very good, very very smooth. I am however going to add just a bit more apple into the gravy to give it just a bit more of that apple taste. We loved it so much that I'm going to make it for a little family get together... Use this recipe!

This recipe was fantastic. My husband and daughter said it was the best tasting chicken they have had and the gravy was wonderful!
