This recipe was wonderful. It smelled so good cooking, I could hardly wait to taste it. I did alter the recipe a little. I used lots of fresh garlic, and rubbed all the powdered seasonings on the chicken. I let the butter melt in some olive oil and added the garlic. After the chicken browned a little, I poured in a can of chicken broth let it simmer for a few until I stirred in 1/4 cup of flour. It made a great sauce! I served It over egg noodles. Loved every bit of it.

Very good and so easy. I liked that I only had to use ingredients I had on hand. I Followed advice of another and used fresh chopped onion and garlic instead of powdered. I sauteed chicken until browned on both sides, then I added a 8.4 oz. box of low sodium chicken broth. I covered it and let cook over medium heat until chicken was done. This made the chicken very moist and tender. Then I removed chicken from the pan. I added about 1 TBL. of corn starch mixed with about 1-1 1/2 c. cold water to the remaining butter and onion in the pan. I cooked this whisking the entire time until thick and bubbly. This made an excellent sauce to pour over the chicken. I served it with parmesan egg noodles on the side, but it would also be good with the chicken and sauce served over plain egg noodles or mashed potatoes.

Highly recommened for the busy mom/dad! What's better than a fast, easy to cook nutritious meal that the whole family loves?! I made this for the first time tonight, and my husband and kids loved it and asked when I will be making it again. I also made a gravey using the chicken bits in the pan and it turned out delicious (I think the gravey made the meal). Topped the chicken and mashed potatoes with it and served with a side of steamed vegies. Perfect fast, easy, delicious, healthy dinner for those nights when you get home from after school sports, etc. Forget the run to McDonalds on the way home from baseball!***UPDATE***I still make this once a week and when my kids ask what's for dinner and I tell them this, they get very excited! Be sure to try it with the gravey...After the chicken is done cooking add 3T butter and melt it, then add 3T flour and use a spatula or whisk to stir the flour and scrape up the chicken bits, the darker the rue the better, then whisk in about a cup and a half of chicken stock, more or less depending on how thick you like it. YUM!
