While this was by no means a bad dish, my husband and I agreed it was just bland and boring. If I ever tried it again, I'd sear the chicken breast first in a skillet and then pour the sauce over them to finish in the oven. Maybe the sauce would have held onto the chicken better then and given it more flavor. Nice recipe idea, but poor execution.
