A keeper
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I tried this with pork loin chops. Used dried herbs instead of fresh, but it turned out fantastic. This is one recipe I... know I will use again and again.Read more

Fantastic!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made the pork chop version of this recipe (along with the Cheesy Orzo some people talked about) and my family LOVED it! My... 7-year old, who normally only likes chicken nuggets and mac & cheese, told me "WOW Mom! You should make this every night!" Read more

Great dish!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I have made this twice. Once with skinless, boneless chicken, cooked exactly as on the recipe (except that in the gravy, I... added red and green papers to the onions and mushrooms-WONDERFUL!) The second time I made it I used chicken thighs, marinated overnight, cooked on the grill. Both came out great. Easy to follow and incredibly tasty. Thanks for the great recipe!Read more

Delicious
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I did this with the pork chops. Delicious, and my husband told me not to lose the recipe. I served it with the Cheesy Orzo... (I didn't care for the Orzo, but my husband love it)and a salad. All in all a satisfying dish.Read more

WOW!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I've made ALOT of Rach's recipes and I must say that this one is by far the best one I've made to date. I made it with... some pork loin chops I had. The marinade is awesome and the gravy is beautiful. I will definitely make this again and again and again!Read more
