EASY Chicken Scampi




Source of Recipe


internet


List of Ingredients




1/4 to 1 lb butter
Fresh Garlic
Boneless chicken breast (quantity is measured by how much you want to make. 9 to 12 chicken breasts to make enough for a large group; 2 to 3 for a small family)
Italian bread crumbs



Recipe



In a saucepan, melt butter and cook slowly with as much garlic as you like (the more, the better). Refrigerate until ready to use. Wash chicken and cut up in bite-size pieces. Put chicken and bread crumbs in a bag and shake to coat. Lay chicken pieces out on a cook sheet. Warm the butter and garlic mixture.

Meanwhile put chicken in a 325�F oven for about 20 to 30 minutes, turning the chicken once halfway through. Pour garlic and butter mixture over the top and bake for another 15 to 20 mintues. Serve.

**(I added a small amount of Sweet Vermouth to the butter mixture, but that is not in the original recipe. It really tastes great this way.)

A comment made by the person who posted this recipe said whenever she goes anywhere, it's the first thing requested. I can see why! WOW!!!

I served it over linguine noodles because that's what I happened to have, but I think I'd prefer bow-tie pasta. Whatever you use, it's an awesome recipe (you gotta love garlic).

If I was to use this as a take-along dish, I would make the butter mixture, and keep it separate from the chicken. Then, all you need to do is pour the mixture on the pre-baked chicken and bake it for the remainder of the time. I'm so glad I tried this recipe.
