"Out of an old Weight Watchers magazine. It had 6 points on the old program. I made this with regular raisins...but I'm sure the golden would give the recipe a more nicer presentation."

Given its prep and cooking ease, this chicken dish is perfect for a weeknight meal. I also love how it takes it easy on the calories, but with no loss of flavor. Love the sauce with its wine and sweet notes. Followed all as directed, except for toasting the almonds slivers. Thank you, Teresa, for sharing.

I loved this chicken! I had two really large breasts that equaled the weight called for. Increased the cooking time a bit to accommodate that. I also reduced the sauce a bit longer. Turned out delicious! Thanks for sharing....made for FYC Tag game.
