    Wow! I was so amazed when I tried this chicken! The flavors are incredible. My sauce was very lemony but I loved the flavor! This is so easy to fix, perfect for a busy weeknight! I had trouble crushing my fennel seeds. I don't own a coffee grinder(to crush the seeds and do not want to buy one for one use! I tried a few different things but chopping with a knife worked the best! This is going into my favorite recipe file! We are trying to eat less carbs and this is perfect and healthy!
    Thanks Giada!

    This was the best tasing chicken and dressing that I have ever had. The color of the dressing was a beautiful green that not only looked great drizzled over the chicken but tasted out of this world. I am thinking of other things I can use it with. This is a simple recipe that is impressive and delicious!

    This is the best chicken ever!! Chicken is normally bland but this sauce makes it very tasty. You should triple the dressing, otherwise its delicious!!

    This recipe is full of flavor and very easy to make. I made the marinade the night before and the dressing in the morning before I my company arrived. My dressing tasted better in the afternoon than in the morning and I think its because the ingredients had time to meld together. At first it was very lemony, but the basil flavor really came through later in the day. I will make this again, for sure.

    We made this with chicken pieces and most recently with a whole chicken on the barbeque. I poured the sauce on the leftover whole chicken and sliced it for sandwiches for several days on wheat with lettuce. Yum! It is guilt free as well as delicious!!! Thanks, Giada

    This is pretty good! I actually enjoyed it MUCH more the next day with the basil sauce drizzled over cold, leftover chicken (which I sliced up thin and then dressed with the sauce. What a fabulous lunch! I think that the basil sauce tastes better after it sits in the fridge overnight, so I will prepare this in advance the next time I make it. I did tweak the sauce a little bit, mostly for my husband's benefit because he felt this sauce was a bit heavy on the lemon juice and zest. I tried to mellow the lemon factor a bit by adding a little more oil and a bit of water which helped, and today it seems to be perfect after sitting overnight! I will make this again.

    I have always struggled to find ways to make chicken breast flavorful and interesting. This recipe hits the nail right on the head. Not only is it yummy, but it is easy, as well. I even forgot to buy the fennel seeds and it was still great. I highly recommend. A great light and refreshing entree.

    I made this last night for friends with lemon risotto. They were blown away!! The recipe is easy but with the sauce looks like you slaved in the kitchen. A keeper!!

    This recipe is now my favorite for grilled chicken. The sauce is delicious and light, not overpowering or heavy at all. The marinade is also fabulous and easy. This is also quick to make with little clean up. A great recipe.
