It can, of course, be increased if you have more at your table (don't you love that Zaar lets you do that with just a click!). I should also mention that this recipe is geared to please my dh who dearly loves sweet. If it sounds like it will be sweeter than you would usually make something, please feel free to cut back on the sugar as much as you would like.

AMARETTO CHICKEN
I can't believe how great this was! It came from allrecipes.com. I'm not an onion fan so I used 1/2 boiling onion instead of green onions and I didn't have any tarragon so I used parsley for color mainly. I also used a jar of Green Giant sliced mushrooms. I love garlic bu t3 cloves sounded like a lot so I used 1 large clove crushed.

Hubby and I came up with this using the standard Tortured Chicken recipe as a base and adding some of the Amereto we'd bought the day before to the mix. A sweet chicken that was just as good hot as it was cold- even a friend's kids were picking the meat off of the bones.
