Easy to make. Excellent flavor. I took the extra half-hour to "brine" the chicken (a new experience for me). It was well worth the extra time. My family loved it. My 6-year-old didn't want vegetables or salad or dessert -- "just chicken". I'll be making it again soon!

I live in upstate new york with my son and my husband. I enjoy cooking immensely, but I also enjoy reading, listening to music, and hanging out with friends. I'm a stay-at-home mom and get lots of time to find/try new recipes, but mostly I get them from my father who's an amazing cook.
