"Adopted recipe. This is super easy to put together. You will probably get messy fingers, but that's part of the fun. You could use more or less garlic based on what you like."

Made this according to the recipe, although I did cut it in half for just the 2 of us! I also used whole-grain bread crumbs & the resulting chicken was DELICIOUS! Loved the combo of spices & will certainly be making this again & again, 'cause we do have chicken breasts often! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Made & reviewed in Healthy Choices ABC recipe tag]

This was yummy! I omitted teh cayenne pepper and ginger and used mayo as suggested. I pressed 3 cloves of fresh garlic into the mayo and mixed then dipped the chicken breast in that and then used italian seasoned breadcrumbs! Thanks for posting!

Yum. Way more garlicky than I thought it would be, but that's a good thing. I used cornbread crumbs and it turned out great. Thanks for something new for us to try.

I used chicken thighs as that's all we had. Probably would have been better with breasts but was nice enough. Hubby liked - that's all that matters lol!

These were very good! Definitely moist. I used light mayo -- didn't have yogurt. I added more garlic since we love garlic. In the keeper file! Thanks.
