  • “Hi Tebo;Made your recipe for dinner yesterday and it turned out super-great, as well as easy to make.Our guests thoroughly enjoyed the chicken with the sauce.I served the chicken over my Special 5 Rice Combination topped with crushed cashews.I also used chicken wings and fried them separately, then added them to the sauce before serving.I have passed this recipe to several of my friends who enjoy good and tasty recipes.Will be making this recipe often.”Uncle Bill””

  • “This was a fantastic recipe. It was simple to prepare and very light. I prepared dinner for two and altered the recipe just a little. I used about 3/4 cup of cream and added about 1/2 cup of chicken broth to create more sauce.Very tasty!!”

  • “Excellent, excellent, excellent!!! Just tweaked it a tad; used half an onion, and did an extra fine mince or dice on the mushrooms.This could alter the original in that perhaps the mushroom flavor is more dispearsed throughout the sauce.Used about another fourth cup of cream and scant TBS of mustard. If there were more than five stars I would give it!! Thanks, Tebo, and I am immediately going to go check out your other recipes!”

  • “I actually used Sour Cream instead of light cream (because I didn’t have any) and it was excellent. What a great recipe. I did not get the chicken breasts down to 1/4″ and so had to cook them longer (traditional ‘until the fork pierces and juice runs clear’) but wow was this yummy!”

  • “Loved this.If you love the “Diane” flavor (as in Steak Diane or Chicken Diane) you’ll love this.I doubled the cream, mustard and lemon juice to get a lot of sauce.It was delicious.”

  • “Excellent. When it was time to make the sauce, I added a 1/2 white wine with the cream and it really gave it a tangy flavor. Will enjoy this for a long time. Thank you”

  • “This is one of those recipes that sounds good in print, but tastes even better! The only change I made to this easy-to-prepare recipe was to double the cream, parsley, mustard and lemon juice so there’d be lots of sauce (for the photo, though, I only used about half the sauce so the picture would be a better representation of the recipe, I served the extra sauce on the side; I also minced up extra parsley so I could use it as a garnish). There were also 5 breasts in my package, not 4, and that was a good thing — everyone wanted another taste! Thanks for posting such a delicious chicken dish, Tebo.”

  • “My husband and I made this together and it is fantastic.Per jijill’s suggestion I increased the cream to 3/4 cup and added 1/2 cup of chicken broth to make more sauce.We served a green salad and garlic mashed potatoes with it.This recipe is a keeper.”

  • “I made this yesterday and the wife and I both enjoyed it.When shopping for this recipe, I couldn’t find light cream any where, so I had to go with heavy cream.I also seasoned the chicken prior to dredging it in the flour.Otherwise, I made the recipe to a tee.The wife really enjoyed the pop of lemon juice and the sauce was nicely thick.>br/br/

  • “This was delicious…hands down. We loved it.”

  • “This was really good!I followed the recipe but didn’t have fresh parsley so I used 1t. dried parsley and it came out fine.Next time I won’t use my iron skillet as I think it gave the sauce an odd color.After I made the chicken I plated it and placed it in a 200 degree oven while I was making the mushrooms and onion.Thank you for posting!”

  • “Made as written except used 1 large breast cut in half horizontally.Served with thin spaghetti but should have served with rice and veggie.”

  • “Very good flavor; easy to make”

  • “This is a lovely recipe!I made as is, with the exception of using 3/4 cup of cream, and a healthy dash of worcestershire sauce in with the onions and mushrooms.Although I did increase the cream, I left the other measurements the same, and it thickened nicely and was the perfect taste treat, for me.I made this tonight, and have already passed it on to a friend.>br/

  • “What a delicious recipe. I am so glad I tried it last night and everyone loved it. Thanks for sharing!”

  • “Added a little white wine while the cream mix was cooking. Served over wild rice. Amazing! Thanks for the recipe!”

  • “This was pretty good even without the Dijon mustard, i swear I had a bottle somewhere…. should have double checked before going along with this recipe but still was very good. my boyfriend who doesn’t really like mushrooms gobbled up this recipe and licked his plate clean! The sauce is very good. 😉 I served it with some rice pilaf, nice combination 🙂 I will try it again with the dijon, and maybe I’ll boost it another star!!”

  • “Quick, easy and delicious!My family really enjoyed this.I added garlic and doubled the sauce so I could put it over spaghetti.We’ll be having this again.Thanks for a keeper!”

  • “I made this and found it to be an interesting, different flavour. Though that may stand from using somewhat different ingredients – regular mustard, skim milk, and dried parsley. Still, it was pretty delicious, and I think I’ll be making this again. Also, the simplicity is awesome.”
