The original recipe took a slightly different approach for the sauce but I decided to put my spin on it. In the end, the result was a savory, moist chicken dish that you can serve on a bed of rice or noodles or even in a taco!
For the baking dish, a 9 x 13 will be more than enough to cook the chicken but depending on the type of dish you have and how small you dice the chicken you might be able to get away with a regular 9-inch baking dish.

What is meant by beef bouillon…2 tbsp of the powder? Or 2 tbsp of the prepared liquid? Or…
You can use cubes or powder. Whatever you have on hand. You can adjust the quantity to your liking as well. I always have a jar of better than bouillon beef on hand so I often use that.
This recipe is so easy to make. As I am a single person, I cut this recipe in half.. it turned out perfect and used 2 chicken breasts. They turned out perfect. Very moist and delicious. I had one the first night and reheated the second one the night after for dinner. It was still moist the second night. I will certainly ask this quick dinner again.
