I don't understand all the high ratings for this recipe. It was visually unappealing, oily and bland (except for the capers which overpowered everything). Not worth the effort it took to make.

This seems to be about 3 different dishes all rolled into one. And not in a good way. There are too many flavors going on. All the flavors seperately are good , but ALL mixed together, it's a miss. I think the chicken and artichokes would be great with the lemon butter sauce. Or the chicken, mushrooms and lemon butter sauce. The bacon was compleltely lost here. And in lost I mean it just did not belong. IT overpowered the delicate flavors of the artichokes. Then you add another salty dimension with capers. I followed the advice of others and made the lemon butter sauce at the end so it wouldn't seperate. It didn't but this dish is a heart attack on a plate and it's not worth it. Sorry.

I have one word for this recipe...WOWZA! Made it for my husband for our anniversary and received many compliments. I was nervous that there would not be enough flavor, but there was plenty. Chicken tasted wonderful and was so tender. Will definitely make again!

One of our favorite pasta dishes ever. I make it with just the chicken and the pasta, no artichokes, mushrooms or capers and it is perfect every single time. The only thing I add is some garlic powder to the coating for the chicken, I've made it with and without the powder and my husband and I definitely prefer it with. This is a go to dish to impress company with, thank you!

I liked the flavor alot. I was a bit worried about the amount of butter so I only put 3/4 cup of butter. It was very lemony. I'll make this recipe again. :)

Very yummy!! I did make a couple of changes. I seasoned the chicken breasts with salt and pepper and grilled them instead of frying them. I also pre-cooked my bacon in the oven (475 degrees for 20 min) Used 1/2 cup of butter and 1/2 cup of light margarine (ok probably didn't make a lot of difference but I felt a little less guilty when I ate it) And I didn't have any mushrooms. I will definitely make it again!

Wonderful and very lemony - we used the leftover sauce on veggies. YUM! Beware - this recipe is very rich! A little time consuming to make, but worth the effort.

This is the recipe I have been searching for...with some of the suggested changes. I had no problem making it in 30 minutes, but it does require one to work on different parts of the dish at the same time (ie: cooking the chicken while the sauce cooks. For the sauce I cut the lemon to 4 TBSP and the butter to a 1/2 cup (which was plenty)! I used 6 slices of bacon and would only use 4 the next time I make this as the bacon flavor was really pronounced. I think the intention is just to add a smoky flavor to the other ingredients. The only other thing I changed was to serve the chicken breasts, pasta, artichoke mix and sauce all separate to accommodate the pickier eaters at our dinner party. Everyone raved and requested the recipe!

I didn't find this sauce worth all the calories. I agree with other reviewers here- you definitely need to make the sauce last so it doesn't separate, but I still found it too greasy.

I tried this today exactly as the recipe stated. I was very disappointed since it was entirely too greasy! I doubt I will try this again.

I would have given the star a 3, however my wife would have given it a 5. This is an acquired taste I assume. Personally I found the lemon to have way too much presence in the sauce, and the whole dish tasted way too tart. The bites with bacon were fine, but otherwise it was like a kick in the mouth. My wife didn't have the same complaint, so its a matter of how much you like tartness in your dinner. For reference I absolutely love lemons.

This was a unique recipe. I loved it. My boyfriend didn't. If you like sour things then this recipe is for you. I put less butter and more cream. Thanks for this recipe I will make this one again for my sister when she comes to visit b/c she loves this kind of food.

This was a very good recipe. I will say that i usually always make the recipe exactly like it states to give it a try. My advice is to cut back on the capers! they do overwhelm the flavor of everything else.

What can I say, "I love this dish." It is so great, it is work, it is not very healthy, and it is incredible! I have made this dish with less butter, less cream, wheat pasta, more capers, more artichokes, no mushrooms, etc. No matter what I do to it it is still by far one of my all time favorites. Bless you URBANCHICK and the 'Dear Italian Woman' who created this dish. This dish will be in my family from now on. ;-p

This recipe was a cross between two different dinners that two different friends had made me so I tried it. It did turn out delicious, however, I started out following the sauce recipe to the letter. (I omitted the bacon and for veggies I used artichoke hearts, sundried tomatoes, and baby spinach) When I started to get to the end of the sauce making process, it was much much too lemony for me, so I ended up pouring in a whole half pint of cream into it to try and save it. I was very concerned at that point about the amount of fat in the recipe. So what I did was, add the chicken and veggies into the saute pan, and pour in a cup of chicken broth, and let it heat up. I also added some garlic powder. I was then able to use less of the cream sauce. This recipe was a wonderful jumping off point, and we all really liked the meal, however, in the future, I will drastically reduce the amount of lemon, cut the sauce recipe in half with chicken broth, and add some fresh garlic. It did remind me of the two meals made for me by loved ones and that was what I was looking for. Thank you!
