Reviews
Easy to get ready in advance. I used my my roasted tomato base.
Nothing great about this recipe. Just average.
We enjoyed this recipe with salt and pepper to taste. I made it as written and would only change one thing: I will add more chicken next time, 4 pounds instead of 3. The thigh meat cooked down so much that we had a lot of extra sauce left over. Instead of noodles, we served it with new potatoes. This will make it on the monthly rotation.
