I've had this recipe for probably 20 years. We always let the kids pick dinner for their birthdays and all 5 of them pick this every year. I got this recipe out of one of James Beard's cookbooks and it is fantastic. Time does not reflect freezing time for the butter.

I've never heard of this dish before but WOW was it delicious. That butter filling really flavors the chicken nicely. Served it was some garlic rice and it was great.1Reply
