Chicken with Mushrooms

snip tasty recipe (although I would have used wine, rather than vinegar)

We had salmon with shallots and mushrooms;
tiny potatoes with sour cream;
micro-steamed brussels sprouts.

I have tried it with wine, but it doesn't give the same zing I get from the
vinegar.

I just need a good starter and something to finish?

Any suggestions?
