Chicken Oliver

By: NOT HUNGRY 
"This recipe was given to me by a friend who made it for a pot-luck at work. It's very easy to make and very tasty, too. I've made it several times and I hope you enjoy this chicken that has a little different twist . Serve with crusty French bread."

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup butter or margarine
