    Very Good
    My husband and I enjoyed this recipe, however, I may have cooked it a little bit longer than I should as it wasn't as moist as it could have been. The flavor was very good though and I will definitely make it again. Thanks for sharing! - 4/19/09

    Very moist, flavorful. A great way to serve boneless chicken breast. This is a favorite quick-n-easy main course in our house. - 1/29/09
