Chicken Riggies II image

This Riggie recipe simmers chicken breast in tomato sauce, cream, sherry, shallots, garlic and sweet peppers, and serves it all over hot, cooked rigatoni pasta - of course. Thus the name, Chicken Riggies! This recipe makes them beg for more; my husband hounds me to make this for him!

This recipe was okay. The chicken was tender, but the sauce was a little too creamy for my taste. I also found the dish to be a bit bland. I might try it again with some modifications.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out delicious. I usually add a little extra garlic and red pepper flakes to give it a bit of a kick. I also like to serve it with a side of crusty bread for dipping.

This recipe was a disappointment. The chicken was dry and tough, and the sauce was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I won't be making this recipe again.
