This sound delicious. Thanks a lot!!!! I have a whole chicken in the frezer but I just dont know how to cut it, lol. I will figure it out but I have everything I need for this on hand
I made this for dinner tonight with roasted broccoli. The only thing I changed was to use boneless, skinless chicken breasts because that’s what I had thawed.
My husband and I agreed; this one is definitely a keeper! Dang it was good and so easy.
Thank you so much for posting it!
Delicious! Will definately make this variation on roast chicken. I love one pot cooking.
I love that I can prepare this all in the morning, stick it in the fridge, and have my husband pop it in the oven when he gets home (an hour before me) and then we can chow down on a delicious dinner when I get home before we run out to our sons activities.
I’m planning on making this this week. Can’t wait!
Hey Dani.
Just wanted to update that I made this for dinner tonight and it was SOOOO AMAZINGLY GOOD! I like to think I’m a good cook, but this was one of the best things I’ve eaten in a while. My husband literally said “wow” when he took his first bite.
Internet High-Five for an awesome dinner!!
My husband and I have loved every recipe of yours we’ve tried Dani, and when I saw this one I couldn’t wait to try it. So much so, I made it on a night we had company over. I think it daring to attempt a never before tried recipe with guests, but I had faith. And the results… We all thought it was superb!! I am addicted to this dish now!
