I have rarely used chicken and spaghetti together, but this dish sounds so delicious that I am going to start doing just that. I like that this idea uses wine to give the chicken a rich flavor profile. Gonna have to make a new grocery list out for the weekend.

I have made this complaint before, which is: a viable substitute is usually not given for cooks who, like myself, do not buy alcoholic beverages, even for cooking.

There are quite a few viable alcohol substitutes that professional chefs recommend. For red wine, you can try substituting chicken, beef, or vegetable stock, or even grape, pomegranate, or cranberry juice. Here are two site that have a lot of alcohol substitute suggestions that you may find helpful: http://www.thekitchn.com/non-alcoholic-cooking-wine-substitutes-184394 http://homecooking.about.com/library/archive/blalcohol6.htm
