I thought the flavor of the italian dressing and sour cream was a great combination and added additional veggies. I will definitely try again.

The dressing and sour cream was not a good combo. Too much sodium, too.

I thought this was very good and easy. I would make this again, probably thin out the sauce a little next time.

Both hubby and I enjoyed; was quite rich, as another said. And dressing taste was a little obvious, but we liked okay. I did add onion and garlic powder and pepper to sauteing chicken. Cooked diced potatoes in water on stove for 10 min. rather than nuking; cooked veggies in same pot with potatoes so all done perfectly. Gravy was a little thick so may thin with milk next time. All in all a keeper!

I added chopped onions & celery when frying the chix and also added 1 cup of skim milk to the mixture. My husband & I really enjoyed this meal & I would definitely make it again.

I didn't like the sound of this one at first... After reading other reviews, though, I decided to try it with Ranch Dressing, rather than Italian. I also added some crushed garlic to the chicken. It was fantastic!! I'll be making this one a lot. One thing I do recommend is to stir the potatoes once or twice while nuking them. Some were more done than others. Also, the frozen veggies needed a lot more than the suggested 3 minutes. Turn it down low and let it cook for about 10.

I made this last night and we thought the dressing gave it a tart flavor. I will substitute next time with chicken broth maybe.

Am not a very good cook, so am always on the look-out for easy, delicious recipes. Took this to a pot-luck. Although there was lots of good food, this was the only dish to be completely eaten. Rave reviews and lots of requests for the recipe. Did make one change though, used the entire chicken, not just the breast.
