Top notch! I ate this the other night at TGI Friday's with my boyfriend and we split the entree. It was the perfect serving for us two (came with two medium pieces of chicken as the recipe requires), so I do not agree that this makes 4 servings. For four people, definitely double the chicken / marinade. I used polska kielbasa instead of chicken as you can see in the photo I uploaded. I will be making this again; thanks!

This is to die for. It's quick to cook just do marinate your chicken and it's a sinch. This is my favorite dish at TGI's. It tastes just like it and I served it in a skillet which made it wonderful. I could not fine the cheese so I used a mix of colby and montery jack cheese instead, it worked out great. THANKS
