Chicken Vermicelli image

This recipe comes from Holly Clegg's Trim and Terrific Freezer Friendly Meals. This actually turned out to be a much lighter version of a family favorite that used a whole stick of butter! Comfort type food that can be made ahead for a quick meal! You can use leftover chicken or purchase a rotisserie chicken from your local deli. The original recipe called for 1/2 cup roasted red peppers which we omitted for family preference. Mushrooms would be a nice addition!

This recipe was a total disaster. The chicken was undercooked and the sauce was way too salty. I had to throw the whole thing away.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but this recipe was a complete failure. The chicken was dry and the sauce was burnt. I won't be trying this recipe again.
