  1. This meal turned out really wonderful despite the not so clear instructions. More detail is appreciated. I used boneless skinless thighs and less than 400 g of button mushrooms and dried herbs since that is what was on hand. Served the chicken over a bed of spinach cous cous since I was out of polenta/grits. Will make again and can't wait to eat the leftovers.
     
  2. My DH made this tonight for me and it was wonderful. We used oyster and shiitake mushrooms, but omitted the polenta. Sauce had a great flavor. We will definetly make this one again! Thanks
     
  3. Outstanding! Great flavors, delicious and satisfying. My family all gave this a thumbs up. The sauce is flavorful and really complements the polenta and chicken. I mixed the broccoli into the sauce right before serving. It worked out great. Thanks for posting this recipe. Its a keeper. I'm only sorry that I forgot to take a picture. Next time!
