Great flavor and I let the chicken marinate longer than suggested. I scaled this recipe back and used bone-in chicken thighs (our favorite) so they would be nice and moist. We grilled these thighs and then we ran out of fuel - so I had to finish them in the oven. They were still very tasty. The cinnamon really adds a nice flavor to the marinade. -
What a delicious marinade for chicken! I used boneless skinless breasts with excellent results. The chicken was so flavorful and moist and tender. I forgot the sprinkle of parsley at the end but I love parsley so will definitely add it next time. Loved this - thanks for sharing the recipe! Made for ZWT9, The Apron String Travelers -
Very flavorful, family enjoyed the flavors of this chicken. Made as written. Thank you. Made for ZWT9. -
I made this replacing the wine vinegar with lemon juice and it was terrific. Put it on to marinate in the morning and enjoyed a very well flavored chicken for dinner. It really couldn't get much easier, just mix, soak and grill. Really delicious, moist and tender. Made for ZWT 9

I LOVE to cook and bake nearly everything!
I HATE to see people join the site, have no published recipes, but rag on another cook in a review on a recipe they haven't even tried or didn't follow.
Oh, and I hate cilantro, too. :)
