I love this recipe. I have shared it with my son, daughter, and my Mom. I have made it over and over again. It is something I can come home to after a long day at work and throw together in a very short time. I have also swapped out the apple cider for pineapple and orange juice on occasion.

I make this when ever we're having company over for dinner. It is easy to make and always a huge success

We made this for dinner for our 22-month old toddlers. They loved it. My husband didn't care for it though (he thought it was too bland. If I was to make it again, I'd sauté some diced sweet onions and apples, remove, cook the chicken, remove and follow the rest of the directions (except that it took my sauce twice as long to thicken. Then add the sautéed onions back to the thickened sauce with the reserved chicken.

Made this last night to rave reviews. The family even wrote on the printout of the recipe with their stars.
Having read the comments, I increased the sauce ingredients by half (great suggestion - that was the perfect amount, and added about a tablespoon of potato flour to thicken to a wonderful glaze. Served it with a pilaf made using wild rice, brown rice, imported red rice, and pecans, with steamed asparagus.
Amazing reception, I may try it on my mother-in-law this weekend.
My only complaint - there was not even a morsel left over for my lunch today (and I thought I made extra.

This was as easy as expected. My chicken came out perfectly done and the sauce was so tasty. My only complaint is that the sauce didn't thicken so I boiled it down pretty far and would have liked to have more sauce. Next time maybe I'll increase some of the ingredients and use a thickening agent to get more sauce. I didn't make rice, but this flavor would definitely go well with rice.

I am just now starting to learn how to cook, so this was a bit of a stretch for me (I know, it was pretty easy but still harder than anything else I've done. Anyway, I liked it, my husband LOVED it, but it wasn't exactly how I wanted it to turn out. I think I let the sauce cook a little bit too long, and didn't cook the chicken quite long enough. I think on my next try (definitely worth a second try, I'll get it just right. The flavors seemed to be pretty good, the sauce just tasted a little burnt.

I made this along with Tyler's Rice Pilaf for dinner and both were delicious. I didn't have a problem with my sauce not thickening like other reviewers. I left the sauce on high for it's entire cooking time, maybe this is the difference??? The flavor was good, slightly sweet. I would definitely make again.

Great recipe I now make at least once a month. I usually keep unspiced cider around, so I simmer the cider with a cinnamon stick, a couple whole cloves and a tiny pinch of ground ginger before making the sauce-- amazing. I serve it with parmasan mashed potatoes and a great caesar salad. The sauce doesn't thicken for me, either, but I'm going to try adding a little flour or cornstarch.

I thought this recipe was extremely easy. I had dinner on the table in 20 minutes. But, the dish's flavor left much to be desired. It was a bit bland and boring.

I'm probably the only non-vegetarian ever who doesn't like chicken, but this is a great recipe! I did use boneless chicken thighs instead of breasts because they're more moist. I also cooked them only halfway, then finished them in the sauce. If you're having trouble with the sauce being too thin, I find that a bit of flour thickens it nicely and doesn't change the flavor at all. All in all, great recipe!
