To bring more awareness to breast cancer this October, ABCD Diaries is participating in a Bake-Off with 19 other blogs. The Bake for the Cure Bakeoff is sponsored by ACH products.The premise is simple: using ACH ingredients (Argo Corn Starch, Karo Corn Syrup, Fleishmann’s Yeast), prepare two recipes per week (Oct. 4 – 20) and post photos of the finished product.So, each week we will be posting 2 recipes, one from the Bake for the Cure Cookbook and one personal favorite. The blogger with the most comments on their recipe posts wins $500, which would truly be a blessing for our family:)This recipe is our most requested dinner...the kids ask for it by the name "Chicken and Rice and Chopsticks":)

That looks like something even my son would eat...as long as I left off the green onions.
ReplyDeleteYeah!
Looks fun- but not as good as your ooey gooey PB bars :)
ReplyDeleteLooks very interesting!! I think I will try it!:)
ReplyDeleteLOLOL I love the name the kids gave it. This looks great, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI have chicken laid out for dinner tonight but wasn't sure how I was going to cook it. So now I know. This sounds so yummy I can't wait to try it tonight!
ReplyDeleteLove me some soy sauce!! I don't eat meat, but I'm trying to figure out how to make this recipe with something else, maybe eggplant!!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds really good. I'll have to give it a try!
ReplyDeleteI am certainly going to give this recipe a try. Chicken is always popular and anything we can eat with rice makes my kids and hubby happy!
ReplyDeleteeasy and YUM! will have to try it!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds good, i've never tried chicken like this before.
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of a chicken recipe like this. I don't have a food processor so I'd have to crush the croutons another way.
ReplyDeleteThis looks so easy and delicious!
ReplyDeleteThis looks good, and I always am looking for new chicken recipes.
ReplyDeleteLooks yummy!
ReplyDeleteSounds good...and simple! (I like simple.)
ReplyDeletethat looks good, I like simple family meals that kids love
ReplyDeleteWe love quick and easy!!

oooh that sounds like a tasty dinner! If one marinated the chicken overnight, it would make a quick dinner the following day!
ReplyDeleteIt looks good, but we are not fans of soy sauce, here...I think we may try it with something else as a substitute....maybe sweet and sour sauce...
ReplyDeleteMinus the soy sauce, I think I could make this w/gluten free croutons. It is so hard to find a good "shake and bake" that's gluten free.
ReplyDeletethis sounds so good and easy I must use it in my house soon
ReplyDeleteI think my family would love this!
ReplyDeleteLooks yummy and easy to make. I'm going to have to put that recipe on my weekly dinner menu.
ReplyDeleteI would eat this with rice. "Arroz con Pollo"
ReplyDeleteI always like different ways to cook chicken, this one looks really good!
ReplyDeleteThose look really good, except I don't do much frying.
ReplyDeleteSounds easy...affordable and delicious~!!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds so good! It looks so easy. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so yummy! I can't wait to try it. My husband loves anything "different" when it comes to chicken. So I'm sure it'll be a hit. Thanks for the recipe.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like restaurant style food, but cheaper. I have always wanted to make this!

ReplyDeleteThanks for this awesome recipe!
ReplyDeleteThis looks good. I like that there are so few ingredients!
ReplyDeletethe croutons make it soundgood intime@myself.com
ReplyDeleteI think adding a little bit of ginger to the topping mix would be good.
ReplyDeleteMy kids are really picky, but I think they would love this chicken. Especially because of the soy sauce.
