If ya'll want something yummy this is it! Instead of bread crumbs I used mashed up croutons and I suggest cutting the Thyme measurment to one teaspoon instead of one and a half. So easy, so YUM! Thank you Paula!

I use olive oil instead of the butter, and it comes out just as yummy. I love this recipe! Thank you...

Absolutely delicious! I did the recipe with chicken wings instead of breasts and it was fabulous. It made me smile when I was so not looking forward to eating chicken.

A new twist on chicken, but not my favorite. I probably wouldn't make these again.

This chicken was delicious, my son couldn't get enough of it. I am not a big chicken fan, but I must say that this was the most tender chicken I have ever eaten.
