"Wow! I just loved this dish. I didn't have fresh basil, so I added dried basil and fresh parsley. I also sauteed cubed chicken in olive oil, garlic and italian herbs on the side and added at the end..." See more. One note - you have to remove ALL of the brie rind, otherwise it won't melt and will leave floating bits of rind in your sauce."

"That's pretty good :) Thanks. I will make again. I love a cheesy sauce. However, I don't love saucy cheese. To the review that reported there were cheese lumps in her sauce... cheese melts, duh!..." See more"
