You do have to bake it in the oven to finish it.... FYI!
Delicious combination of savory and sweet. My 9 year old son and my husband both loved it!

This was just okay for me. I baked the chicken and it turned out well. The recipe needs to be more specific about what to do with the honey butter. Good dish, just didn't care for the flavors.

This is a hit in my household! my husband loves this recipe and requests for me to make it at least once a week. I use garlic herb bread crumbs and sald/pepper instead of italian seasonings. I also put extra honey butter sauce on top of the chicken and usually pair this meal with a pasta alfredo... Delicious!

These ingredients sound a little odd together but this chicken tastes amazing. The whole family loves it and my in-laws raved as well when we made it for them.

I really liked this and so did my family. It took a lot longer than 5 minutes per side to cook a chicken breast to 170. Thats why I didn't give it 5 stars.

This was a lovely recipe, i like to use honey in my cooking so this was an good excuse. I didn't have poultry seasoing but it was still very good.

This is very tasty without the sauce. The sauce is overwhelming. I have found that it cooks better in the oven than in the skilet.

I have made this recipe many times, and it is always great. I think this is one of my boyfriend's favorites, because he loves honey, so of course he loves the honey butter in this recipe. I try to only make it for special occasions, because it does seem to take awhile to make, and it has a lot of fat content. It's still a favorite in our house!

Great recipe! I used lemon/pepper seasoning instead of the italian. Panko instead of bread crumbs. The honey butter was delicious! I think my grandkids would like this!

This was fairly good, but I didn't really think it was great. I honestly don't know if I will make it again. I love honey butter, but it just didn't seem to go with chicken.

Fried in butter and then served with butter!!! Life just doesn't get any better!! Loved it and will definately make this again. I liked some of the comments regarding baking this. Maybe will try baking if I'm feeling a need to eat healthier (less butter).

This was incredibly delicious and is a regular in our house now. My big change was honey butter. My kids didn't like it so I served it with apricot preserves. Very good!

My whole family love's this recipe most of all my three kids. I like to make the chicken in to strips and we dip it instead. YUM!!

Worked out really well once I realized it was supposed to be chicken breast halves, not the whole chicken breast. Wouldn't have ever thought to put honey butter on chicken but it is fantastic. Will definitely make this again.

Pretty darn yummy! Definitely needs the honey butter - I warmed it in the microwave and drizzled it over the hot chicken. I also totally agree with those who baked it. 350 oven for 30-40 minutes made it just right! Decreased the poultry seasoning by half for my teen's tastes, and it was great. Got two thumbs up from the family. :D

Very tasty. I baked it ... Put a little veg oil in the bottom of a pan, breaded chicken and put in pan. To be totally unhealthy then put a little butter on top and baked at 350 for about 30 minutes. Also made double on the butter and made rolls and used the honey butter on the rolls as well as the chicken. Very good!!!

The combination of honey and the herbs turned out very well, but after trying it in the skillet I decided it would work better being baked because the chicken was still a bit too moist for my tastes. Would make again.

I heated up the sauce. I did not enjoy standing over the stove preparing this. Some of the bread crumbs fall off in the skillet. This is the only breaded chicken recipe that I have ever made that involved preparing the chicken in a skillet instead of baking it. If I make it again, I will definitely bake it.

Great! My family gets tired of chicken. This was just the recipe to spice up our dinner. We poured the sauce over the chicken. Great flavor combination.
