    Living in Northern California now, we SO miss Chicago and it's fantastic restaurants. The Italian Village is a great place to eat and this recipe was divine. Thanks for posting!

    I made this dish recently after trying many other recipes and it was excellent. I've had this dish at The Italian Village many times and am happy I'm able to recreate this at home. Thanks for the recipe!

    Note: I made a couple of small changes to the recipe that appeal to my personal tastes. After chicken has been browned, I transfer it to a 13 X 9 baking dish. I add 1 cup of white wine to the pan drippings and reduce it to a syrup. Add 16 oz chicken stock to the pan and reduce by half. Make a small amount of roux and add it to the reduced liquid to thicken slightly and pour the gravy over the dish when completed. I also add petite peas and pearl onions to the chicken and potatoes while making the gravy. I toss the entire meal in the oven for about 30 minutes (covered. It softens the potatoes a bit while cooking the chicken, peas and onions.

    I just made this for lunch and it was awesome! The only change I made was adding a tsp of dried thyme. What a tasty dish, not sure why they rated this as intermediate, as it is VERY EASY to prepare!

    This was a fantastic dish. Everyone in my family loved it and it was not too difficult to prepare. Will be one of my family favorites.

    Very simple and easy. I wasn't sure how it was going to come out, being that I only had chicken breasts. I gotta say,
    DELICIOUS! If it came out good with using breasts, imagine how it would taste with thighs, legs, breast together. ***Delicious!****

    Every year I have a big Father's Day bash at my house and always try to make something different for my dad. I made this chicken vesuvio the day before, quadrupelled the recipe, also put small portabella mushrooms in and served it a large catering tin pan. Warmed in the oven and everyone loved it. It is VERY DELICIOUS.
