Recipe Introduction
Here is a recipe that I had made up from 3 or 4 different recipes and had a thumbs up from different crew members on the different ships I had worked on. I have a separate cooking menue that I make on board. Whenever a meal gets high praise, I place it in Seadog's Shipboard Favorites. This was one of them.
Note: You can also cut the breasts in strips if you want.
