About This Recipe

I had an acquaintance hand me this recipe and said I should try it. After taking a look at said recipe I was inspired and I can safely say that three ingredients from the original made it into my vision, the chicken, broccoli, and baguette. What was created was like a warm security blanket you could just wrap up in and hide for the rest of the night.

Look at that cheesy goodness

Choosing Your Barbeque Sauce

The thing that can really make this recipe WOW your tastebuds is the BBQ sauce you use. There are so many out there that I feel we can do something more adventurous than just a plain BBQ sauce. I found this “Hot Pineapple Ginger” BBQ sauce, and when I tried it I ended up eating far more than I probably should have. So get out to that local grocery store and find something that sings out to you.
