An easy recipe, and very tasty! Definitely will double the sauce ingredients the next time, too, for all the reasons everyone else has mentioned--and I won't have any leftover whipping cream sitting in my frig either. I used about 1\/4 tsp each of dried basil and thyme, and it suited my family members.<\/p>","CommentId":8,"DateRated":"03\/15\/2016 10:15","GUID":"B92C87B086074F199CE1B5E41EBA12AB","MemberId":1496914,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"jbennett","SubmittedDate":"03\/15\/2016 10:15"},{"Comment":"

My kids and I love chicken and thought that this was good. I made with dried herbs instead of fresh, otherwise I stuck to the recipe. I thought it was a little too lemony for our taste.

Loved this!! I used bottled lemon juice since I'm allergic to lemon peel, and basil from my herb garden. I doubled the sauce, and added some fresh mushrooms, because we love them with chicken. So good, nice lemon flavor, but not overwhelming. I served it over French cut green beans since we like to stay low carb during the week, and the sauce was lovely on them. Will make this again<\/p>","CommentId":13,"DateRated":"08\/26\/2015 11:00","GUID":"36a645d1b21f4b92ae6f66daed226afe","MemberId":2581969,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"shawnba","SubmittedDate":"08\/26\/2015 11:00"},{"Comment":"
Very enjoyable and solid flavor all around. We used fresh lemons and the chicken broth option. Next time would use white wine as mentioned. I also doubled the sauce, so there was enough to coat the noodles. Simple enough to make on a weeknight, but tastes rich enough to serve for a weekend entertaining meal.<\/p>","CommentId":14,"DateRated":"08\/16\/2015 14:01","GUID":"3DA0C4E2FC6A430BA48E4083FBE8802F","MemberId":496732,"Rating":4,"ScreenName":"JGa2595176","SubmittedDate":"08\/16\/2015 14:01"},{"Comment":"

For the sauce, I chose white wine over the chicken broth and it was delicious! As another reviewer noted, there wasn't any sauce left to coat the noodles. So I added a tablespoon of butter, parsley and lemon juice to the angel hair pasta, and served it as a side dish.<\/p>","CommentId":16,"DateRated":"08\/02\/2015 09:58","GUID":"92bb9952935643da930c6baf262daa4e","MemberId":6059530,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Remenec","SubmittedDate":"08\/02\/2015 09:58"},{"Comment":"

Fabulous and so tasty as well as Simple and Delicious. I used skinless, boneless chicken thighs instead of breast meat because my family prefers dark meat.
