Made this last night, and it was very good. I used the suggested marsala wine, which does have a lot of sweetness to it. It cooked out very well by the end, but for anyone who does not like a hint of sweetness with savory foods, I would go with plain white wine instead. To cut down slightly on the fat, I also removed the skin from the chicken first, then seared it to a nice golden brown for flavor. And i used a variety of freshly sliced shrooms - crimini, oyster, shiitake, and white - along with the dried porcinis. I didn't have any cornmeal on hand, so I went with mashed potatoes instead. If you're a fan of mushrooms, I highly recommend this dish. Very flavorful. The only adjustment I'll make next time (and I will make this again and again is to dissolve some cornstarch or flour in water and add it at the end to thicken up the sauce a bit, as it was just a little too thin for my liking.

Just made this last night and YUM YUM!! I changed it up just a bit by using a mix of mushrooms that I had on hand, crimminis, white button, and dried chanterelle (that I reconstituted seperately in boiling water along with the dried porcinni that were reconstituted in the chicken broth.
I don't know what KSD1111 did wrong because I found this dish to be very flavorful and well worth the work.

My family absolutly loved this recipie!!!! I split it in half for my sister and mother, and took home the rest. The chicken was so tender and moist. Even my sister a picky eater loved this and requested it again. I am even making it tonight with extra chicken. At my small grocery store they didn't have whole chicken legs, so I bought a package of drummies and thighs, worked great. I did not try the polenta, just some nice crusty sourdough bread. Delicious! Also I omited the dried mushrooms, and I don't think anyone noticed.

If you're a fan of bland and weird then try this. Sorry Rachel but this one did not deliver enough flavor for the work. It was also really weird to put a peice of bone-in meat on top of creamy polenta and then put a rather soupy sauce on top. Eating it was very weird trying to remove skin and bones from the soupy, mealy mix. I won't bother with this one again.
