~This is the Truth About It~

Because I said I'd post this a while ago and never got around to it.

On the one hand:
This does take about two hours to make. The good news is an hour and a half of that is watching a movie or something and peering at the pot occasionally.
It is a bit of work ... but not that much more than, say, alfredo or the like, and a lot less than you'd probably expect.

( And oh, is it some of the nommiest chicken ever. )

I will note this:
The whole thing sounds like a lot more of a "hard work big production" than it is; I felt like making stroganoff was more work and required more fussing over than this, although that might just be that the stroganoff requires constant attention, while there are several chunks of this where you can wander off a bit as long as you make sure it's not boiling over or burning or anything.
It is also incredibly nommy, and ended up with some of the most tender, soft, moist chicken I've ever had.
Also keeps well for leftovers.
