I made this dish the other day and thought it was pretty tasty! I liked the rosemary and mustard flavors together. I added about a tablespoon of garlic to the oil mixture that gets brushed over the chicken, and thought it was great that way. I served it with brown rice and the "roasted brussel sprouts with balsamic glaze" http://find.myrecipes.com/recipes/recipefinder.dyn?action=displayRecipe&recipe_id=1895997
that I found on this same website. It was a fast and easy meal, and tasted good.01/21/10

This recipe was so good, easy and very quick to prepare. I accidentally used a tablespoon of mustard with the oil and rosemary. I like mustard so this was a good mistake. I cut my chicken into tender size so it would cook faster. I served with yukon gold potatoes mashed with fat free sour cream.01/10/10
