I am always on the lookout for dutch oven recipes. I'll definitely be giving this one a try. One question though. Doesn't the butter burn on the bottom of the pot when frying the chicken? Why would you not use oil to pan fry the chicken?, or a oil butter mixture? I can see the reasoning for the additional butter. Just curious. :)
