Chicken Chausseur - My Way :-) image

I found this recipe on the internet, made a few changes to the ingredients, just based on what I had at home. Made it for dinner last night and it was awesome. I served this on white basmati rice, my favorite rice. This is my very first post here so wish me luck.
