Great taste! Family loved it. I replaced chives with diced onion, and it worked just fine. :)

I made this simple, yet elegant dish as directed for a small dinner party, tonight. Each guest raved about how delicious and moist the chicken turned out. Thank you so much for a really good recipe to add to my dinner party repertoire.

Neither my husband or I liked the taste, wasn't our thing; but a great way to use our fresh herbs.

I have tried unsuccessfully for years to cook moist chicken breast. This makes it easy and the whole family loved it!
