I knew I had to share this recipe with you after taking my first bite -- that was back in February (**note: I have made this multiple times in the past few months). Now that I am finally getting around to sharing the recipe with you, I suggest adding it to your dinner rotation ASAP.
Chicken can get so boring but the flavors in this dish are excellent. Even better -- the prep time is minimal and the crisp outer coating keeps the chicken nice and juicy!
