This has a wonderful Italian flavor and was a favorite with my tasting victims. I had such fun creating this recipe, and hope everyone enjoys eating it as much as I did creating it. These can be prepared ahead of time and popped into the over before eating. The times are really a guess because I was creating three different recipes at one time. The chicken can be poached if you prefer (place garlic and chicken in water and keep water at just below boiling point) Ingredients:
