This was a big success! As quick and easy as this recipe is, it's packed with flavor. The chicken is moist with a great crispy coating---what's not to like. The reduction sauce really puts it over the top, a nice finish. This one's a keeper. - 6/11/12

This is soooo good I wish I could give it more than 5 stars! I served it to 9 people and everyone loved it. I did not have shallots, so substituted minced garlic. - 4/3/11
