REVIEWS:

It was excellent. The chicken was very moist. Only modification is that the wine/stock combination was a little dry, so I had to add some water to it, and I put it in a small pot rather than a skillet so that the liquid can cover all the chicken. Served it over couscous with almonds and raisins, and it was fantastic! Thanks for the recipe!

Chicken came out incredibly moist and flavorful. I didn't have any white wine and my celery had gone bad so I can only imagine that this dish would be even better with ALL the ingredients. The carrots came out delicious as well.

This recipe was very easy to follow and the result was delicious! Very flavorful and moist chicken that my young son loved. I served this with some roasted potatoes for my husband and son and I had this dish and a side salad. Was very filling!

Delicious! Served over rice.

Really delicious comfort food. I would recommend slightly seasoning the raw chicken before dredging it in the flour.
