This recipe is from the Whispering Canyon Cafe at the Wilderness Lodge. As far as the Disney recipes go this one is one of the tastiest meals I have ever cooked. The recipe is broken up into parts, but most importantly remember to cook some pasta!!
The Blackening powder should keep a lot of moisture in the chicken breast. Then during the final staged the cayenne pepper seems to start to tint the cream sauce and … I need to cook this now as it was so good.
