Oh My...this was amazing!!! I saw this recipe in the 'I Made It' group when Justjakesmom told us about it...Thanks JJM!!! I made it exactly as written and it was perfect. I'm glad I used the exact amount of fresh garlic and garlic powder that you stated in the recipe because it was just the right amount! This is a whole lot of garlicy, cheesey goodness! It kind of reminds me of a chicken scampi! I served this with my Grilled Romaine Lettuce...this was a very tasty meal! I added my photo :)
