Excellent! I had no cornmeal so made breadcrumbs out of old white breads with seeds, it worked very well. I also added the dry ingredients to the wet and marinated the chicken for 20 minutes because one of the reviewers mentioned the chicken was dry and many also suggested adding more hot sauce - the marinating resolved both matters. I had it with Potato wedges by Dana MMH (#49200) and Honeyed Carrot and Beetroot Recipe by Syin (#195381)

I?m ?originally from Texas, but now live in Florida. Still gotta have that spice though....love chipotle peppers, habaneros, and jalapenos. This is a picture of myself & my 2 daughters taken in Dec'06. I am working on my graduate degree, & still work as a nurse prn. When I'm not cooking and eating what I cook... I head for the gym to work out. As far as cookbooks, I love the church/ community cookbooks, where someone has dug out old handwritten recipes by granny and shared them with others-those are the best kind. If I had a month off, I'd for sure go hiking, would love to visit Australia and New Zealand.?
