I've made this dish twice now and my guests and family loved it! Even my two kids who don't like mushrooms. I couldn't find morels one time and substituted with a blend, I didn't think it was as good but still delicious. Morels lend such a wonderful flavor to this dish, they are worth the extra price.

I made this for a small dinner party the other evening, and one guest upon arriving at my door asked me what that wonderful smell was. I told her that it was "Chicken with Morels". She said it smelled sinfully fantastic, which I took as a great compliment.

When dinner was served, everyone commented on how great the dish was. I did not change anything including the pricy morels. I have read other comments where the wine, Maderia, was thought to be too expensive. I disagree, finding it in my grocery store at just $3.99 a bottle. I also found it at Bev mo for $10.00 a bottle. This will be one of my very favorite recipes to make in the future. Thank you Ina for yet another winner !

After my husband and I took our first bite we could not stop saying "MMMMMMMMM" through the entire meal! I did halve the recipe as it is just the two of us, but kept the same amount of sauce, as I like more if you need it for rice, etc. Since I totally lucked out and found dried morels on sale I splurged on a really good bottle of Madiera. It definitely made a difference in taste since the mushrooms soak up alot the ingredients. Next time (oh and there will be a next time I will use light cream. I wouldn't normally serve chicken to guests, but this recipe gets ushered to the top of my list!

The mushrooms alone costed me $36, so the recipe needed to be extraordinary. It tasted like chicken stroganoff. Next time I will make with a different mushroom.

I made this for Valentines Day dinner and it was a hit with my husband and kids. I substitited baby portabella's for the morels and sherry for the Madeira since that's what I had on hand. I made my own creme fraiche (recipe can be found on internet. It was a superb dish that I will absolutely make again.

This is my "gold standard" for chicken recipes! Ina's recipes are perfection! Trust the recipe, and you and your guests will be sooo rewarded! Yes, the ingredients can be pricey - esp. the morels - but for a special occasion, it is simply untouchable - and it's chicken!! And you can do it all ahead of time and then reheat as she suggests, or what I did was prepare everything down to the oven time - wait for your moment - then pop it in the oven till hot and bubbly! Perfection! Thanks so much Ina - you are such an inspiration to just regular gals like me!

This recipe is wonderful!! I served it last night at a dinner party to rave reviews. Since we're pheasant hunters, I used pheasant breasts rather than chicken. YUM!! I subbed sour cream for creme fraiche, and used the dried mushroom mixture from Costco (which includes morels and sauteed baby bellas for the morels. I used truffle salt and truffle oil for an additional layer of flavor. I served this dish with a combination of wild rice and barley cooked in chicken stock. So dinner last night was courtesy of our two wonderful pheasant hunting dogs!!

I followed this recipe to the letter and had high hopes given all the other reviews. It tasted good, however, I found the Madeira to overpower the dish- it was all I could taste. I would have liked the sauce to showcase the morels more, especially since they are so expensive. If I make this again, I will use cremini or button mushrooms.
