My husband loves chicken when it's nice and moist, as in this autumn recipe. I serve it over hot rice with a salad and warm rolls. The ruby red sauce has a wonderful sweet-tart flavor. -Dorothy Bateman, Carver, Massachusetts

I'm not a big fan of chicken, but this dish was surprisingly good. The cranberry sauce really made the dish.

The recipe was easy to follow and the ingredients were easy to find. I made a few substitutions, using brown rice instead of white rice and adding some chopped walnuts to the cranberry sauce. It turned out great!

This dish was a hit with my family! The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the cranberry sauce added a tart and tangy sweetness that balanced out the savory flavors of the chicken and vegetables. I will definitely be making this again!
