Very flavorful, with just the right amount of zip! I was only able to let it marinade for 1 1/2 hours, but it still turned out great. Towards the end of cooking, I chopped up a green onion and tossed it in the pan, then added about 1/4 cup of the red wine. I let the wine reduce and, after plating the chicken, poured it over the top. Served with broccoli and rice. This recipe is a definite keeper!

I used a Red Zinfandel wine for the marinade. It tasted wonderful and my husband loved it too!

Wasn't too sure about this one as I'm not a really big fan of a strong red wine taste. But this was really good, and the paprika and garlic salt (used a bit more than suggested) really spiked the flavour up.

I will probably try this recipe again though I thought it was a bit bland. I used a French Cabernet.
