I decided to make these on a whim, and I'm really glad I did! Since I'm not a cook in the slightest, it took me way longer than 35 minutes (closer to an 1 hr+); it took me longer because I'm new to cooking and my pieces of chicken were THICK (I didn't tenderize them). However, it was well worth the effort. I wouldn't consider this cheap, but it wasn't breaking the bank either, so it's doable on a weekly/bi-weekly basis.
I did make adjustments according to what I already had, so I didn't buy every single thing on the ingredients list. Instead of shallots I used 1/2 a large onion (diced) and 1 clove of garlic (minced) and I omitted the wine. I also used green onions instead of chives (but next time I'll try chives), and I ended up using a bit more olive oil and salt. It was GREAT.
Whether you're a skilled cook or new to cooking, I think this recipe is worth a good try (whether you follow this recipe to a "T" or you modify it). It can easily feed four (maybe five!) people and the sauce can be used with mashed potatoes and corn too. This is definitely one meal I will try and try again because it just ROCKED.
Make this meal!!!
