I followed recipe with one smalll change. Take grape tomatoes, halve them, mix with 1tsp olive oil, 1tsp good quality balsamic vinegar, lay them on a parchment paper covered cookie sheet and roast at 350 for 25 minutes. Serve them on top of the chicken.

This is really good! I've made it many times. The sauce is great, and we serve it over angel hair pasta. Wonderful!
