- In same skillet, saute onion and garlic until golden.
- Add mushrooms and cook 2 minutes.
- Add wine and cook 10 minutes.
- Add remaining ingredients, including chicken.
- Cover and simmer 30 minutes.
- (Note: At this stage, I like to break the chicken apart into bite-sized pieces).
- Serve over cooked spaghetti.
- COOK'S NOTES: The alcohol from the wine is removed during the cooking process, but chicken broth may be substituted for the wine if desired.
- Or, a combination of both may be used.
- If a saucier dish is desired, more of either the wine or the broth, or both, may be added before covering and simmering at the end.
