Pretzel Chicken With Beurre Blanc Sauce image

This recipe is from one of our favorite restaurants. We usually only go there on special occassions, as it's quite the pricey place!! I couldn't believe my eyes, when I found this recipe in our local paper. I have since made it and it's absolutely wonderful.

This dish was a bit of a disappointment. The chicken was dry and the sauce was bland. I think I would have preferred it with a different sauce, or maybe just a simple pan sauce. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.
