I fixed this for company and they raved. I crushed croutons for the crumbs and used 1 Tbsp. garlic salt instead of the garlic paste. Mmmm!

This was a nice change for chicken. I marinaded the chicken before hand and then used flour instead of bread crumbs (I didn't feel like running to the store, I think it would be better with the bread crumbs). Then I poured the extra marinade over the chicken for added flavor. It had a wonderful garlic flavor and the hint of Balsamic vinegar mixed with the mild sweetness of the honey was a nice combination.
