    What is the best dry white wine to use for cooking? I have seen some recipes say white vermouth, but don’t really care for that unless it is in a Martini. Do not drink hard liquor any more, unless it is a special occasion at someone else’s home.

    Love Lana’s recipes.

  2. Heather | All Roads Lead to the Kitchen says:

    This definitely looks like the perfect weeknight dinner…simple enough, but rich and full of flavor! This is a must-try.

  3. I love dishes that are deceptively simple but so full of flavor. What a great option for making chicken special!

    What a fabulous weeknight dinner. Perfect for Friday night, when I want something nicer than my ordinary weeknight fare, but don’t have the energy (or time) for a full blown, multi-hour main course. And honestly, I could easily serve this to company on a Saturday night too:)

  5. This is a dish I would absolutely love. Chicken, mushrooms and white wine. I love the elegance and ease of this dish. Fabulous!

  6. Thank you for sharing – you just solved my “what’s for dinner” problem for tonight!

  7. I love a dish like this–easy and fancy at the same time! And yes, you had my attention from the very beginning!

  8. susan / the wimpy vegetarian says:

    This looks just wonderful – so comforting and so delicious!!

  9. Oh, boy, do I need to add this to our menu! An excuse for me to eat all the mushrooms (hubby fakes that he’s allergic to avoid them) and for both of us to have a fabulous entree!
