DIANA'S GARLIC AND HERBS MARINADED CHICKEN BREASTS
We picked up a bunch of Diana's Marinades when they were on sale and this one looked so good we had to try it right away. This marinade is so flavourful on its own that you don't need to add anything else to this dish! You could marinade the chicken overnight but the marinade is so flavourful we just cook it without marinading overnight.

CRAB STUFFED CHICKEN BREASTS
I got the idea for this recipe when my husband was told no more "Red" meat for a while by our doctor. I became creative in coming up with different chicken dishes and this one came from a dip I made a few years ago. Try this recipe, you will not be disappointed!
