Very, very good! Family gave it 5 stars. I gave it 4 because of the prep time involved. Daughter cleaned up after me & wondered just how I could dirty up so many dishes! Hopefully, I'll get better & faster at this dish, because it will be a regular chicken dish for us from now on. Served with brown rice, fruit salad of mango, papaya, avocado, & lime juice. Nice dinner! Don't miss this one!!!

This was very tasty! I also added one small diced onion and sauted in with the chicken. Very easy to make. A great work night meal. The family thought It was great! No leftovers made this #1 in our book!
