Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

Chicken Bryan does not have Proscuito, that is Pollo Rosa Maria. 2 different Carraba recipes

Delicious and so easy! It tastes just like at the restaurant

Tastes just like the restaurant. We had their special one time which was sirloin bryan. We like it more than chicken version so I make this recipe and serve over steak. So good!

I absolutely loved it.

Everything about this recipe is marvelous! I love the combination of the sundried tomatoes and goat cheese.

I made this for a Christmas party for 20+. Everyone loved it! Added to our family favorites.

Ab fab! I did as posted and tweaked the wine and lemon juice and correctly reduced the sun-dried tomatoes ( added fire-roasted peppers). It's absolutely the goat cheese that makes this dish so, if you substituted something else OR added proscuitto, you ate something besides Chicken Bryan!

Great recipe! My family loved it.

Absolutely delicious and tastes just like Carraba's, even with me using chicken broth in lieu of the wine. Definitely a recipe I will use again and again! :D

This is a great recipe. I've used it many times because my husband loves the "real" version. I like to double the amount of sauce and reduce the amount of sun dried tomatoes. This has to be almost the exact recipe - our Carrabbas does NOT put prosciutto on top as one reviewer stated.

My favorite dish. I will make this many times.

This was really good. I like the original, but that's a lot of butter, so I cut it back to 5 tbs, and added about 1/3 cup chicken broth. I don't know a lot about cooking, but that worked out for me. I also used feta cheese instead of goat cheese, because I always wished the original had it.
I have not tried this recipe yet but have had the real deal many times and was looking for the copycat because I love it. However, Carrabas has proscuitto on top as well and this recipe does not. It really puts it over the top...

Never had the chicken at Carraba's, but this recipe was great. Very rich not for everyday, but for a night of misbehaving perfect.

I thought it was delicious. MMM MMM

I found this recipe when planning an Italian themed picnic. I followed some of the reviewers suggestion to decrease the amount of sun-dried tomatoes. It was VERY good. It is a keeper. Thank you.

WOW!!! I can't believe i cooked this. My wife doesn't like onions or tomatoes. She loved this dish.She said the sun dried tomatoes had a real sweet tast to them. Will be making it again tonight also.

Chicken Bryan is my favorite dish at Carrabba's so I was excited to try this recipe. I used less sun-dried tomatoes than called for and I just loved it. I have served it to my family members who also love it at Carrabba's and they say it takes just like the real thing!
March 30, 2008
EXACT. Had this once at Carrabbas and that was enough to try it. My husband said it was better then the restaurants'. Must be the free wine and dogs laying at his feet that added to the positive experience.

This dish was very easy to prepare and the flavors are just so complimentary and WONDERFUL! The flavor of the wine definitely compliments the flavor of the goat cheese. The colorful presentation is just PERFECT. YUMM-O! Not even one disappointed guest.

WOW! i love this recipe in the restaurant and was so happy to make it myself. i made it for my picky in laws and they raved even tho it's nothing they'd ever try. i'm making it tonight for new year's and cant wait!
September 26, 2007
pretty good recipe.. I've never tried the actual one from carraba's, but this was pretty good. I would reccommend serving it with more than one side because you will probably get kind of sick of the chicken after one or two pieces... the sundried tomatoes and chesse become a bit overwhelming. You should definitely try this recipe.

I live far away from the one and only Carraba's in Omaha, NE, so when I found this recipe, I just had to try it. It is AWESOME! It tastes just like it does at Carraba's. I couldn't find the "caprino" cheese, so I just used plain goat cheese, and it was fine. I can't wait to have the leftovers tomorrow!
June 7, 2006
This was really great! Awesome flavor!
May 31, 2006
I have made this several times and it is to die for!!! The sauce is heavy on the sun dried tomatoes, so I cut it back a bit. Other than that, PERFECT AND EASY.
March 27, 2006
This is the best dinner @ Carraaba's!!!! I get it EVERYTIME I go there!!!! I just ate it and it tastes exactlly like they serve at Carraba's!!!! So whenever you don't wanna go out you can make it @ home!!!!!

We tried this recipe for a large crowd on 2/14, and there was not a scraping left! Everyone raved about it and some came back for thirds. We added butter-sauteed portobello caps that we sliced into thirds afterward. We also sliced the chicken up prior to adding the sauce, and it worked better for a large crowd. Also, sauteeing the onion and garlic ahead is fine, but don't add the butter to the sauce until just before serving time...the emulsion broke on us when we reheated it in the morning. If this happens(your butter will turn to oil), simply pour off about 3/4 of the liquid and add in the butter again over low heat. It will turn out fine. Great job on whomever submitted this recipe!!
