Chicken in Wine and Mushroom Sauce

 John Carusone (Florida) says:
Recipe a little vague. I followed instructions, but decided to bake finished product. After adding gravy mix to Dutch oven, I placed it all in the oven at 300°F for 45 minutes. It came out perfect! Used gravy over rice and chicken and it was delicious. Would do again.

Good base recipe but very bland as written...and not enough mushrooms for the amount of chicken. I tripled the mushrooms, doubled the wine. I took John's advice and finished it in the oven at 300°F. I tasted it after 45 minutes and it needed seasoning. I reduced the heat to 200°F, added salt and about a tablespoon or so of butter to make it creamy. After 15, 20 minutes, the chicken was very tender and the sauce creamy. I think I would probably use a little chicken broth along with the wine next time to make more of the sauce, maybe this way I can avoid adding butter and salt.
