Hubby got off way earlier than me and found this luscious treat waiting for him when he got home. The minute I walked in the door, he said, "I had some chicken. It's GREAT!" I have to agree!

In my search for something other than chicken breasts in my freezer, I came across some pheasant my husband had brought home a while back.

We had to settle for dried thyme, but it was still very aromatic and flavorful. We used chicken thighs and turkey bacon, and our only complaint was that the turkey bacon we used lost a lot of flavor while cooking. That may be because we used an all-natural variety that didn't have some of the artificial flavoring agents.
