I don’t make a whole lot of chicken for dinner…the reason? To Read More, Click On The Recipe Title.
My hubby tolerates chicken….barely tolerates it I might add. He does have some recipes he’ll actually request, like chicken and waffles or a recipe for Honey Sesame Chicken that Giz posted on Equal Opportunity Kitchen… thank you, Giz! SO…when I made this recipe, and he actually liked it, I HAD TO post it!
This was very easy to put together, which I really like. The aroma of fried bacon and onions was absolutely wonderful!
You might want to try this if you have a “picky-chicken-eater” too…they might very well be surprised!

You had me at bacon LOL! Of course. 🙂 I can understand your hubs aversion to chicken. It’s so hard to cook just right, and doesn’t have a lot of flavor unless it’s bone in breasts or dark meat.

Oh you guys have done it again! Bunny, my husband is like yours. Unless the chicken is grilled and slathered in barbecue sauce, he prefers not to have it. I have found a few recipes he’ll eat though.
