The family didn't really agree on this recipe. I thought it was great!! But some felt that it was a bit bland. I can understand for those that don't like thyme, they may want to cut back on the thyme or eliminate it completely (but you really should substitute it with something because I fear without the thyme it would be a bit bland). For those that like thyme, like me, this is fabulous!! Thank you so much for sharing this great low fat recipe. I will make again, and will try variations on the spices to see what I can get that the entire family enjoys!

These were delicious! I cut back on the thyme (personal preference) and next time will omit it altogether. I think I might substitute oregano or basil instead. I didn't have tenders so I just cut breasts into strips. It worked great--they were moist and tender. Thanks for a great low fat version with full fat taste.
