When I was a young girl, I went with my parents to visit one of their friends. When I married, I wrote to that friend and asked her to share her recipe. Lucky for my, she said yes.

I love this recipe! I placed the dish with the chicken in it in the oven while I was sauteing the veges and thickening the sauce. I definitely will make this again.
