This is my family‘s favorite chicken recipe, but made healthy with a few lighter substitutes. I’ve heard that this dish is named after the response you get when you serve it to your dinner guests. Yes, it’s that good!

Step 2

Step 3

3. Brown chicken for 4-5 min on each side or until golden brown and cooked through (don’t overcrowd - work in batches if needed). Set aside on a plate.

Step 4

4. Add garlic to the pan and sauté fragrant. Add wine to deglaze the pan.

Step 5

In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine your yogurt and milk with a whisk.

Step 6

5. On medium-low, add yogurt mixture (it will separate in the heat). Simmer for about 2 minutes, then add spices and salt/pepper to taste.

Step 7

6. Add the sundried tomatoes, return chicken to skillet. Thicken for a few more minutes.

Step 8

Check chicken for internal temp of 165 F. Add optional fresh chopped basil and serve over rice.
