This was very tasty and easy to prepare. I used rubbed sage instead as I was out of thyme. I served with linguini and salad. The best thing about it was, the fact that everyone in my family liked it! Yea! We will have this again.

CRAZY GOOD! I added tomatoes plus used another poster's advice about adding balsamic and cornstarch to make the sauce thicker. My house smells like garlic still, but it was worth it! I only used 3 ounces of chicen because I mixed it in with a cup of pasta. What a great dish!
