I just made this and the flavors were perfect. Healthier than fried but still has a super flavorful crust and juicy on the inside I exchanged chopped jalapeno peppers for the garlic and it turned out great. Next, will make it for guests.
I use unsalted French,Irish, Icelandic or Land O Lakes Butter, Naked Wild Raw Honey, Coconut Liquid Aminos,Wegmans Organic Chicken Breast,White Vinegar,Served with Basmati Rice, Steamed Broccoli, Prior to the Aminos, I used lower Sodium Tamari. Lovely Dish
Well to me you changed the whole recipe….Hope you renamed it. I’m trying it next week and will be back with how my family enjoyed it….. Thank for the original recipe don’t think I’ll be making your special way of making it.
Today,9/11/22 we fixed this & it’s really good & very easy to prepare! Yes, we’ll be having this again.
I just made this recipe and I can belive how delicious it is!! Tobe honest, I didn’t expect it to taste this good because the preparation is very simple. It was a very nice surprise♡!
Aon top of that it looks very fancy!
Thanks for another amazing recipe 😀 .
This chicken was fantastic! Loved the flavors and how moist it was. Used the pan drippings to sauté some rice I had already cooked and served along side the chicken with some fresh green beans, my husband couldn’t say enough how much he enjoyed the meal!
Sounds quite delicious! So, I’m thinking fried rice to go with it as a side. Do you or anyone else have any other suggestions for good side accompaniments?
We had stir-fried veggies. Everything was so good.
Sounds great! Thank you.
I’m going to Boil egg noodles to al dente. Strain noodles and sauté noodles in butter, garlic, Parmesan cheese and season to taste. You can add fresh minced parsley or dried. Or for a pop of flavor sauté the noodles in Sun Dried tomatoes oil, Parmesan and season to taste.
I made this, it was delicious. After frying breasts, the butter looked bitter, so I removed all liquids, then added the butter to a fresh pan., etc.
I’m going to double the sauce, very flavorful.
Broccoli 🥦 or asparagus with cilantro rice
Wow,it was delicious! I served it with Mexican rice and scalloped potatoes. Combination might sound weird, but there were no complaints.
Sounds yummy!
This was to die for, it was so flavorful, juicy and tender. I had to substitute boneless/skinless thighs, that’s all I had, and it still turned out delicious. This is a recipe which can be put together very quickly if you have all your ingredients ready. THIS IS A MUST TRY Y’ALL.
I made this exact recipe tonight for dinner. I will be making this chicken again! Easy and delicious!!! Fresh carrots, peas and curly fries!
Perfect!
Made this chicken last night, was so good and easy. The family couldn’t believe how good it was for such a fast prep/cook time. 5 star rating!!!
What a wonderful recipe and it’s a new family favorite. I double the sauce and add steamed broccoli after the chicken is cooked and serve over rice. Versatile enough to add orange peel for orange chicken or hot peppers to kick it up.
Just tried this. This was AMAZING. I had all the ingredients except 1T honey. I used golden syrup instead. It turned out fantastic. Not dried out inside, very juicy! This is going in the rotation!
What sides do you recommend to go with the best chicken breast recipe? The tomato cucumber as pictured looks great. Is there a dressing for it?
I’ve made this four times now and it’s one of my family’s favorites. It’s been really good every time. The chicken was not dry at all… definitely reccomend.
What’s the alternative for apple cider vinegar? I wanna make this tonight but I cant get hold of the apple cider vinegar
Loved this recipe. Will be making it again. Can’t understand why it only got a 3.5 star rating.
Do you have to use apple cider vinegar
I am planning on making this recipe. I am single and only cooking for myself. It would be helpful to have the ingredient size for smaller or larger serving sizes.
I used one cutlet and halved the ingredients in order to have enough sauce to put over rise as a side.
Honestly I was a little hesitant about the apple cider vinegar, but this was really good and quick. This will be a great go to recipe for me! Served it with coconut rice yummy.
this is excellent. great flavor profile.
Second time making this recipe and it is delicious! My husband says the chicken is as tasty as a filet. I double the sauce because it is so good. Tonight the sides were mashed potatoes with skin and baby carrots. The sauce was good on the carrots. I changed nothing about the recipe. Thank you for this post.
I am going to give it a try this weekend. Looks delicious
I am nowhere near a chef and made this last night. Wow! Love the flavors! My wife now thinks I am a master chef lol
OMG! I just made this and it is out of this world! So tasty and tender. I could eat this every day!
This sounds delicious but I have just one question. When it says 3 chicken breasts it means both sides of the breast right? So actually 6 servings?
Usually it means boneless skinless chicken breast halves so it would be three servings. I wish I knew how big the breasts are so I could plan the timing better
Why score the chicken?
loved it my house they all want this recipe again. Perfect it is easy and tasty. thanks 🙂
This is a delicious quick meal. I will be making this for family gatherings at my house.
My husband raved about the chicken and how good the flavor was.
Terrific!! Definitely 5 STAR WORTHY!
Simply, yet elegant.
Thank you 🙂
My husband and I really enjoyed this recipe. Super yummy! Thanks for sharing.
This was the best chicken I have ever made. I doubled the sauce and added onion powder, garlic powder and paprika to the flour before coati g the chicken. Having extra sauce was wonderful as I served with mashed potatoes and the sauce was a nice addition. I highly recommend this. This will be in my line up. Thank you!!!!!
Glad you liked it 🙂
I wonder if you could use teriyaki sauce instead of soy sauce…?
Absolutely delicious. Looking at the ingredients you wouldn’t think that it was sooooo good. A lovely surprise. Thank you for sharing.
Making it for dinner tonight. Can’t wait to taste it. My house smells so good.
I notice that the flavor profile is very similar to Filipino adobo – braised chicken with soy sauce, vinegar, garlic and black pepper. Sugar/honey is an optional ingredient in that dish.
Wow! Super easy, but the taste…. I can’t say enough about how freaking delicious this was!
Just made this for dinner and WOW- delicious! I followed the recipe, doubling the sauce. I added broccoli florets to rice and fried it in the extra sauce before serving.
Why is this 3/5 stars? It was perfect. I used Kickn Chicken for the seasoning. Followed everything else as written. Juicy, flavorful – my reputation is on the upswing. I routinely over cook chicken breasts.
