This receipe is wonderful and I typically NEVER eat mushrooms! Although I did substitute baby bellas for the button mushrooms. The smell while it is simmering is mouth watering

This recipe is so great! Everyone in my house loves it, and I have some very picky eaters. I have been making this since 2009, and not one person ever gets tired of eating it! We actually eat it at least once a week! So good

This was wonderful! I didn't have any chicken thighs, so I substituted boneless chicken breasts. My sauce ended up more red than in the photo. But..the picky boyfriend told me to add this to the "regular" list of entrees!

Super delicious and super easy. Only problem, the skin gets really flabby and unappetizing. So, next time I'm definately going to remove the skin before browning. Still think bone-in is the way to go for the flavor. Also, because I am such a huge fan, I added 24 oz of mushrooms. This is DEFINATELY a make again!

Entire family enjoyed the flavor, but WAY too fatty, and the nicely browned skin became soggy after braising, so there's no point to keeping it on. I always like to try the recipe "as written" the first time, but will use boneless, skinless thighs or breasts the next time I make this to decrease the fat. Like others, I'll also try replacing some of the stock with red wine to add a little more flavor.

I love love love Emeril ;- This was very good. Tender and juicy. Cant give 5 stars only because it has to blow me away for a 5. But very good addition to our recipe book.

This was absolutely fantastic!!! One of the best chicken dishes I have ever made and I cook a LOT. I like others did sub out some stock for white wine, but I did 3/4 cup wine and 1 1/2 cups stock. I made the Essence in this recipe and it had just the perfect amount of spice. The only other change I made other than the wine was I used mini portabellas instead of button mushrooms because I had them on hand. Cooking time of 1 hour was just about right, although mine probably simmered about 15 minutes more. Prep time took a little longer than stated, but very easy and very very good! served over egg noodles.

I never use Emeril recipes, but tried this and it was excellent. I substitued a package of frozen mixed veggies for the mushrooms to make it a more rounded all in one pot meal. I also used white wine in place of some of the chicken stock. I left the cover off for the final hour of cooking and my sauce reduced to a nice thick flavorful sauce. Stirring it around a bit during the last 30 minutes helped reduce the sauce. It was not too greasy, even using the butter. I did drain the excess oil before adding the butter and veggies to the pan. Next time I will remove the skin after crisping it, as it was too soggy and not necessary for this dish. But I will use it in the first step as it left flavorful brown bits in the pot that added nice flavor to my sauce. I also think the chicken will be even more tender without it, since the areas without skin when I made it absorbed more sauce and actually became so tender it was falling off the bone. My husband loved it, will definitely make it again!

Big taste factor for such an easy dish. Terrific sauce, chicken moist and succulent. I sliced the mushrooms thicker than called for, otherwise kept everything the same. Very good.
