Recipe: Baked Garlic Butter Chicken

I tried a new recipe tonight that went over in a great way!  Chicken ... get this ... that the children did not ask to dip in ketchup! That's pretty huge in the Brown house.  What's more, mid-dinner Anna told me I need to make this more often, that she liked that it was spicy but not in a hot way. ;}  Noah loved it right away, too, but he's generally easy to please.  Josh and I both gave it a quick thumbs up as well, remarking after every bite almost - it's quite moist and has an obvious but still mild flavor ... which I know sounds contradictory.  Just trust me, this was a tasty dish and so easy to prepare.
