This is another recipe I don’t remember the source.  This is one my husband found.  This is a fabulous recipe I make any time I feel the need to impress my guests with my mad cooking skills.  :)   This easy but very yummy meal can quickly make any ordinary night feel like a special occasion!

Note: This recipe can be done with 4 or with 2 chicken breasts without reducing the other ingredients.  It just means extra sauce, which we never complain about in our home.  :)
