Delicious! EVERYONE should TRY THIS ONE! So easy yet so impressive! This made the perfect Anniversary dinner for Mike and me! 22 years! I didnt have any sunflower oil so I used plain old veg oil. I wouldnt use olive oil as it may be too much here. These flavors are delicate and luscious! I am so glad that I followed your instructions and used fresh ground nutmeg. Wow! Definitely use fresh! It really comes through here and makes this dish devine! I used red seedless grapes and they were so surprisingly good in here. I thought they may be a little strange- grapes and chicken? but OH MY STARS! how wonderful! They left a tiny bit of sweetness and a flavor that is so complimentary to the sauce. I did add a splash of white wine but it so did not need it. This was even better reheated the next day if that is possible. I served this over some simple plain white rice. I will be making this one again! The only thing I can even imagine adding might be a sprinkle of fresh parsley or green onion to garnish this wonderful dish and give an even prettier presentation. Thanks NCM for a wonderful meal!

5 very enthusiastic stars! I would recommend to anyone making this recipe that they at least double the sauce. It was so good! I added garlic to the frying chicken, didn’t use the grapes, and forgot to add the cream, but it was wonderful! Bet it would be even better with the cream. We were left wishing for more! We couldn’t get enough of that sauce! Yum!

I wasn't sure about the grapes with the cream and chicken, but I kept coming back to this recipe, and decided to give it a try. I was very surprised at how good the grapes were after being cooked a bit - the tartness mellowed and totally completed the whole dish. DH, who is not an adventurous eater, proclaimed it a five star, and I wasn't going to argue with that. I made the recipe exactly as written, but did not need the cornstarch - I just simmered the cream sauce to thicken it. Great recipe. Thanks for posting it.

This was fantastic. I added 1/2 teaspoon of curry and doubled the sauce. I ate this with some leftover baked pasta with lemon, asparagus and mascarpone and they were awesome together — in my review of the pasta, I had complained that it wasn't saucy enough. this sauce on the leftover pasta was perfect I'm definitely making this again.

OH MY WORD!!!! This was FANTASTIC, what a great stop on the ZWT3! As soon as I saw this recipe I knew I would like it and I was not disappointed at all. Easy to make, I LOVED the delicate sauce and all the flavors blended so very well. This goes right into my favorite recipes cookbook and I look forward to making it again. No changes, it is perfect. Thanks so much for sharing this one, I wish I could give it more than 5 stars!!!
