Guess what day it is?!? It’s Foodie Friday with My Dear Friend Aricka at Shamrocks and Shenanigans.  For today’s post she made an AWESOME Chicken with White Wine Gravy (Pantry Meal)

This is where I pull out my Pantry meals. This one is an old one too. I took this from Gram (back when I was barely married to The Fireman) who probably took it from a Woman Day’s or some sort of magazine.
