A few weeks ago I tried a chicken recipe from The Recipe Crayon Box for "the perfect chicken" that was, quite honestly, very good. When I made it I thought that it would be perfect for chicken salad or any other recipe that called for precooked chicken. Then I tried THIS recipe and now have a new "perfect chicken". This recipe actually makes me want to eat chicken. every night. It was perfectly tasty and, being grilled? Well that makes it even better! As a side note - I did NOT use Sriracha Sauce. I didn't want to buy a bottle of something I may never use and, since the kids eat the chicken, I try to avoid anything "hot" - plus that is not a favorite flavor of my husbands either.
