This sounds good, but I would use thighs in place of breasts.

I also prefer boneless thighs for some recipes. Many people say the flavor of thighs is actually tastier than breasts. Some friends have told me they most always substituted thighs for breasts because they preferred the taste of thighs. Not long ago a lady told me she liked a recipe I had sent, but she preferred thighs. I said no problem, cook the thighs then debone and use them in place of breasts.

I can’t remember the last time I bought chicken breasts.

And you can save a few dollars because they are about half the price of breasts.

Here in Thailand there isn’t much difference in the price of thighs and breasts. In the US breasts cost more because so many people buy breasts. It’s supply and demand.
