  1. Authentic or not, this was excellent! Made burritos with this, the chipotle cilantro-lime rice copycat, and some salsa verde, and they simply disappeared!
     
  2. I don't care what you call it, as long as it's "delicious!" Super easy and probably the best chicken I've had. Seriously, this has been made almost weekly since we first tried it. Sooooo good! We eat it with salad, we slice it up for chicken burritos, throw it on a salad. It's so good!
     
  3. Thanks for this recipe. I am in NYC and used this recipe while waiting for Hurricane Sandy to hit. She hit and it was big. Fortuantely, my neighborhood was spared the worse of the damage. The recipe was excellent and brought comfort to a stressful night. Thanks!
     
  4. Delicious! I used crushed red peppers instead of whole peppers, pounded the breasts and grilled so they had the char marks. Very good flavor.
     
  5. Dh raved about this recipe. My chicken breasts were boned so grilled them with vegetable packets and served with my sour cream peach pie. I marinated over 12 hours making for an easy meal the next day. Nice aroma-love cumin, moist, and delicious. I did not have dried pepper, so just put in a bit of red pepper flakes. Thanks Jamilah for posting.

I found Zaar after I got married and it's been such a lifesaver and so much fun. I enjoy the games and DH and DS enjoy the food!I usually work as a surgical tech but since my son was born I moved into my new profession as a stay at home mom. It's a nice change I've been enjoying it and it gives me more time to COOK! I like to share recipes that I enjoy or have eaten at some of my fav places. I'm a San Diegan currently living in New York with my Husband and our 15month old Son. <a href="http://s106.photobucket.com/albums/m276/ribosomal/?action=view¤t=sammyzaar1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m276/ribosomal/sammyzaar1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://s106.photobucket.com/albums/m276/ribosomal/?action=view¤t=tootah205websmall.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m276/ribosomal/tootah205websmall.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <a href="http://www.commenthaven.com/glitter-text-generator"><img src="http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/198/z4aafc3566855b.gif" alt="Glitter Text Generator" width="327" height="67" border="0" /></a> When I first came to zaar I recipe selected mostly 4 and 5 rated recipes but now after playing several games and seeing the different ways people review. I realize so many recipes miss a good chance. So now I just go by ingredients or a good idea and choose my recipes based on that. I've been lucky enough to grow up eating a variety of cuisines from various cultures and have eaten at some really great restaurants from hole in the wall to 5star. So I let my palate do the choosing and so far I've had pretty good luck picking recipes. I don't generally rate recipes by cooking time or exact measurement of ingredients unless it's a baking recipe or the temp and time were just way off. I also won't give a bad rating because of my lack of ingredients or skill. I don't measure when I cook unless it's baking. I give the recipe a good read and eyeball the amounts. This works for me. I know everyone has different tastes and I will be hard pressed to give a rating of 3 unless it just really didn't work for me. I don't see any reason to hurt anyone's feelings when I can just give a detailed review of my changes or no rating instead.
