I was looking for a recipe that I had made many times before and this was the closest I could find. I subbed seasoned bread crumbs for cracker crumbs and did not cook it nearly as long only about 40 minutes. I also did not cover it with foil. The topping is so good and the chicken came out juicy and full of flavor.

Tasted great. Simple prep. I've made it twice now and found breadcrumbs to be easier on the second go-around.

Great flavor, crisp coating. I baked mine for about 35-40 minutes, uncovered. This recipe states a total baking time of 1 hr and 15 min for boneless, skinless breasts which seems way too long. Mine were tender on the inside and crispy on the outside.

This is great chicken! So moist and tender, and very easy to make. The saltines made a nice crust that was not overly crispy, and we just loved the buttery garlic flavor. I will use this recipe often - thanks for posting it! Made for Fall PAC 2008

Very nice flavor, easy to prepare. I used Panko breadcrumbs instead of saltine crackers. I will make this recipe again. Served with steamed brocolli and a asiago cheese bread.
