"LOVE this recipe! The only changes I made was to lightly salt the chicken before dredging in flour, using dill instead of bread and butter pickles, and adding a little mayo to the buns when assembling. It was delicious!"

-SharonChen
"This is going to make weeknight recipes so much easier! I just finished packing my freezer bags and placing them in the freezer.”
-Jenny
‘This recipe is super easy, fast and tastes really nice. If you're in doubt, stick a thin knife through the thick part and if the juice is not completely clear, cook for five or 10 more minutes and try again. If it is clear but you're still not sure, cut that section through and make sure there is zero pink left in the middle."
-Sara B.
"Yum! I will cook bone-in chicken like this again. I plan to save the left over broth for tomorrow and dump some cooked noodles and leftover chicken for a quick soup for lunch."

-DaisyH
"Yum! Another winner with the overly picky husband. I thought this tasted very ‘pot-roasty’ and heavy — not expected from a chicken dish but very welcome!”
