Chicken, chicken, chicken. We all buy it and we all want something different to do with it. Well, here is another option. I like saucy, full flavor dishes and this is another one to add to the rotation. As it cooks, it makes the most amazing sauce! The red wine is optional but adds a great depth of flavor. While I recommend cooking with real wine (it just adds better flavor and the alcohol cooks out) you can also buy red cooking wine at the grocery store or replace the wine with stock. I served this over brown rice but by itself or with noodles would also be nice.
