Famous Butter Chicken---so moist & delicious!!

Ok I've made this about a dozen times already and everytime I make it, I get rave reviews & people ask me for the recipe.  Sometimes chicken breast, depending on how you make it, can taste dry & rough.  However, in this recipe, the chicken is sooooo tender, juicy & moist that it just melts in your mouth & you can't get enough!! Well at least my family & I can't.  And the best part of all of this is that this recipe is so EASY to make, with few ingredients to buy...test it out & let me know what you think.  FYI...I got this recipe from http://www.allrecipes.com/  so it isn't my own to claim, but I like sharing the recipes that I've tried & have turned out really yummy!!

Ingredients


2 eggs, beaten
1 cup crushed buttery round cracker crumbs
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
ground black pepper to taste
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1/2 cup butter, cut into pieces
 
Directions


Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Place eggs and cracker crumbs in two separate shallow bowls. Mix cracker crumbs with garlic salt and pepper. Dip chicken in the eggs, then dredge in the crumb mixture to coat.

Arrange coated chicken in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Place pieces of butter around the chicken.

Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.

Creamy Chicken Enchiladas | A Recipe Blog with Step-by-Step Photos

I made these Chicken Enchiladas by following the recipe on this website I've linked below. Everyone in my family loved them!! Probably not the healthiest mix of ingredients but they do sure taste good & were easy to make. I just picked up an already cooked Rotisserie chicken at Stater Bros & shred it to save time! Let me know how they turn out if you make them yourself!

My Favorite Mexican Restaurant!!

Hola Cholas!  Everyone that knows me, knows that I loooooove Food & when there's a restaurant or a dish that I REALLY like, I can't help but tell everyone in the world about it.  So...that's why I'm letting all of you know that Bahia in Orange is one of my all-time Favorite Mexican Restaurants!!  Bahia is located off of Chapman & Tustin Ave. Across from Selman Chevrolet.  Here are some of the yummy dishes I've had from there...FYI..I love their rice & beans!!

• Camarones al mojo de ajo (shrimp sauteed in garlic butter) w/rice & beans
• Carne Asada Plate
• Enchiladas (red & green) plate, (cheese, beef & chicken)
• Carne Asada Torta (yum!! the bread is so soft!)
• Fried Ice Cream
• Shrimp Cocktail (yum, in my opinion they have the perfect blend of sauce, avocado, pico de gallo, etc)  I haven't had one better yet!
• Ceviche

and many more.  Plus you get whole tostadas for your chips with their yummy salsa!!

Unfortunately they do NOT sell Margaritas or mixed drinks here, but they do sell BEER.  And I'm a BIG fan of their Micheladas (Mexican beer, with ice, a salted glass rim, lime juice & red sauce)...make sure you ask for ice because they do not serve it with your beer unless you ask for it.
Next time I go there, I will make sure to take some pictures of the food & atmosphere to post on here!!

UPDATE:  Stacy lost her battle with cancer on April 8, 2010.  She leaves behind a husband & four kids.

Hi friends,

My former boss at a previous job, Stacy, has been battling breast cancer which has spread to her brain, chest & liver. Please read her message below & see if you can help out in anyway. Even if you can't help financially, please keep her & her family in your prayers. Attached is a photo of her & her family. She is only a few years older than me. We complain about the little things in life, such as traffic, a bad hair day, gaining weight, the weather, etc...but next time you start to complain, imagine yourself instead going through Stacy’s battle everyday. She is running out of time & may not be able to see her kids grow up. Please share this with your friends, coworkers, or whomever. Hopefully if we spread the word, we can make a difference. Thank you, Yvette


Stacy’s Message:

Hi my name is Stacy Becerra and I am currently fighting the battle of my life. I am married and have... 3 beautiful daughters and a loving step-son. I am currently suffering from Breast cancer that has spread to the Liver, Chest and the Brain. I am quickly running out of time and I am trying to get admitted into the Oasis of Hope, a Center that has had great successes with patients in their 4th stage of cancer. I need to raise $25,000 dollars ($15,000 to start their program). I know this sounds like a lot of money, it really is but I need to try to raise this money in order to win this battle. If you can help with any amount, NO AMOUNT IS TOO SMALL! $1, $5, $20, etc. anything would be greatly appreciated. If you’re unable to donate your prayers would mean the world to me!! If able you may send cash or check made out to The Stacy Becerra Cancer Fund c/o Diane Greigo, P.O. Box 4392 Santa Ana, Ca 92702, if you would like updates please include your email address. If you don’t mind copying and posting to your status or wall and sharing with your friends as well I would be very thankful! Thank you for your Continued Prayers and Support.

Love and Faith, Stacy 2/16/10
