  1. I’m always on the look out for a new easy way to make chicken, and this fit the bill. Very good. I did omit the red pepper.
     
  2. This is a unique chicken dish. It has VERY mild flavors. Almost too mild, but I enjoyed the delicacy of this dish. I marinated it for 23 hours. I served this over a bed of chicken broth simmered rice. Yum!
