    I made this with sauteed mushrooms instead of the spinach and it turned out great. My husband and I loved the recipe - so much flavor. I used red wine for the sauce. Will definitely make this again!

    Had a little dinner party for 4 and this chicken was spectacular! Pretty easy! I used extra mustard on the chicken breasts (3TBLS and then also put 2TBLS of mustard in the sauce. The sauce is awesome...

    I prepped everything beforehand which was easier than how I normally do it! Good stuff though and rave reviews from our guests. Served with the lemon spinach and a Panzanella salad recipe from Barefoot Contessa. Great, yummy dinner.

    This recipe was very easy to follow. The chicken turned out moist and flavorful. The breasts I used were a bit thick so the cooking time was not 22 mins from start to finish but adjusting the time to suit the thickness of the breasts, worked out fine for me. The sauce was very flavorful and I will definatly make this again!

    I made this tonight for dinner and my husband andI really liked it. I followed the recipe however I love mushrooms and thought it would be great with the shallots and it was! The chicken breasts were moist and flavorful and with the mushroom/shallot sauce and fresh parsley it took it to a whole new level. I decided to go with brandy rather than wine because I thought it would give the dish a sweeter taste with the shallots. It was wonderful! I skipped the spinach and served it with roasted broccoli with toasted breadcrumbs and parmesean cheese and a spinach salad. I will definitely be making this again!

    I didn't follow the measurements exactly. I guessed with the salt, pepper, rosemary and garlic. I probably even added more than what the recipe called for because I like a lot of flavor. I did put the proper amount of red wine and chicken broth and the sauce tasted too much like wine so I added more broth. I cooked for 4 people and everyone enjoyed it. I never cook with mustard, shallots, or red wine so this was a good change of pace. Also, I added sliced brown mushrooms to the mix of spinich and everyone seemed to enjoy that.

    I always like to try new recipes from Food Network and this one did not disappoint. After reading some other reviews I made a few tweaks to the recipe and they worked marvelously! First I only used 1 shallot (although it was a rather large shallot I think two would have been too much. Second I only used 1 Tbsp of dijon in the sauce. It gave just enough flavor without overpowering the shallots and brandy. The last change I made was to just use a couple squirts of lemon juice rather than zest as I didn't have any fresh lemons at home. My husband claims that I really outdid myself this time which is quite a compliment from him. And he has also never really been a fan of spinach before this dish. The lemon worked really well as a contrast to the sauce. Overall a big success!

    This was good. Mine was purple and ugly because I used merlot for the sauce, but other than that it tasted good. Served it with Giada's parm mashed potatoes

    I just made this tonight, and it was a huge disappointment. I think it was the dijon mustard that made the sauce taste a little bitter. Likewise for the spinach...tasted kind of bitter.

    It just wasn't the kind of flavor we were looking for. I think it would have tasted better without the dijon in the sauce.

    The fresh rosemary is key to this chicken. It was fast and delicious. I will be making this again in the near future. The spinach was also delicious. I have never put lemon zest in my saute spinach, but I will do it again if I have a lemon around.
