Thanks for this recipe. You consistently post recipes that are so good. Only thing, as usual, I will substitute thighs for the breasts.

Thanks for the compliment. As I said before I like thighs as well because of the different taste and they are not as dry as breasts. I have a friend who prefers thighs just as you do, and I told her I felt it was fine to substitute thighs no matter what part of chicken is in the recipe. The bottom line is my wife and I are really fond of chicken, and anytime she or I make a chicken dish we are happy campers.
