National Poultry Day

It occurred to me that I hadn't done a wacky holiday lately so...Ta Daah.

Today is the National Poultry Day.  This is to honor all the chickens and turkeys that we consume.  I know that around my house, chicken is a staple my household as my hubby finds that beef is harder to digest.  I just love the fact that there are so many different things one can do with a chicken breast.  I wanted to share a great recipe with you :)
