This was a OMG nothing in the house dish! I made it up based on what I had, and my bf really liked it. Thats why it's Gypsy, a sort of rustic mish mash.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but the chicken came out dry and tough. The sauce was also bland. I'm disappointed because I was really looking forward to this recipe.
