Always.

i did something tonight where I pan seared them then put them in a pyrex (you could also use a dutch oven) with sauteed onions, crushed tomatoes and kalamata olives. turned out pretty well, wasnt dry and wasnt that boring

this is a go-to of mine
tequila lime chicken

If they're bone in, i like to just inject them with some Creole Butter Cajun Injector and bake 'em. Seems simple, but damn good.

In a baking dish season the chicken and put a half cup of white wine, whole head of peeled crushed garlic and a half jar of capers. Roast at 375 for about 40 minutes and remove. Add a pat or two of butter to the pan juice and swirl in then pour over chicken. You can squeeze a lemon in it as well and any fresh herbs you like.

Any chicken you have will work well. I prefer bone in breast but keep a package of the boneless in the freezer for backup.

The boneless skinless fresh ones at Sams are very good, cheap and huge.

Recipe i have used several times: 1 can cannellini beans (drained), 2 gloves chopped garlic, 1/4 cup greek olives (pitted) chopped. Mash beans with fork and mix with garlic and olives. Make a slit in the breasts to form a pocket and stuff with the bean mixture. Season the breasts and sprinkle olive oil over top. Place in a 375 degree oven for approx 45 mins.
