This marinated chicken is simple, versatile, and yummy. Italian dressing is the key to keeping the ingredient list short and sweet and close copy of Cracker Barrel's version.

  2. SkyBeauMom REVIEW:

    This dish turned out really yummy, I served it with green beans and mashed potatoes. I was also very skeptical about the chicken just tasting like italian dressing. this was so NOT the case... its amazing what a little lime juice and honey can do!...my one recommendation is to marinade it overnight not just for a couple of hours.

  3. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    Tastes just like in the restaurant. I used lemon juice in the bottle instead of lime fresh lime, it's all that I had at the time. Turned out fantastic!!!!

  4. Kat REVIEW:

    I was skeptical at first, thinking the chicken would just taste like italian dressing, but the lime juice and honey flavors made a big difference! My boyfriend and sister ate with me and kept complimenting the chicken. I have been asked to do it like this everytime : )
