This was such an easy, yummy recipe! I always like to try the recipe as written first, but I only had 1/8th cup of balsamic vinegar and not enough fresh mushrooms, so I used one can in addition to the few fresh that I had. I'm definatley going to make this again, but with the full amount of vinegar and lot's of fresh mushrooms next time. The only thing I found I had to do was add a little flour to the sauce to thicken it slightly. I forgot the butter at the end, but it was still great without it. This is a keeper for sure! I noticed that many people were saying the flour on the chicken made it goopy - you literally just *dust* the chicken...pick it up in your hands and pat the excess flour off - you aren't supposed to thickly coat it or it will end up that way. Try this recipe...you won't be disappointed!

This was the first time I'd ever made a crown roast and it turned out pretty good. I made my own bread cubes and I'm glad I did - I think it would have been really mushy using bread crumbs! I omitted the chestnuts due to a nut allergy and think, after tasting it, it would have been better with white wine instead of vermouth. It was very tasty, but I felt that the roast should have been seasoned with something prior to cooking...I will make this again but with the few changes I've listed. Thanks for sharing!

WOW. That's all there is to say...WOW!!! If I could give this more than 5 stars, I would! I did not have a cake mix with the pudding in it, but it turned out just fine. I do have one question though...does this need to be refridgerated when it's done??
