This is a nice change for chicken. I made it as written but I think I would reduce the butter to 1 Tbsp next time as it seemed too much to me. I shook a bit more hot sauce on when serving too. I will try this with half mayo and half sour cream in the future as I think that might be good. <br/>Thanks for posting this!

This recipe was DELICIOUS!!! I thought mayo sounded disgusting though on top, so I replaced it with greek yogurt and it turned out incredibly. Will definitely be making this again.

This recipe impressed not only with it's easy preparation, but it wowed flavorwise too! It definitely deserves it's place in my Best of ... Cookbook! I omitted the butter in an attempt to lower fat. Instead I baked on a foil lined pan and sprayed well with cooking spray. There was plenty of spread to top the chicken without it. The spread is scrape off the pan delicious and makes a boring chicken breast crazy good. I used medium heat Frank's Buffalo sauce & no one found it too spicy. Thank you for sharing this keeper of a recipe! Made for Spring 2012 Pick A Chef. :-)

Great recipe and really easy to make. This was a big hit with the kids as well. I added some cream cheese and reduced the butter. I'm pretty sure it's one of those recipes that doesn't need to be exact and will still come out great.

This was really good. Easy to prepare, the chicken turned out nice and juicy. I was hoping we would be able to taste the hot sauce more, but we just shook some on top and that satisfied us. I took another reviewer's suggestion of using Greek yogurt, used half mayo and half yogurt, just to cut back on fat and calories and it worked out great. Thanks for posting this recipe.
