Tasty on chicken breast. I thought I had course sea salt but turned out I didn't so I had to use regular grain sea salt, I may have reduced the heat to our preference by using less of some spices, like freshly ground black pepper & cayenne pepper powder in place of the crushed red pepper flakes. I used garlic salt instead of onion salt and garlic powder as that is what I had on hand, plus the rest of the ingredients. We like skinless chicken breast so that is what I used rubbing this on an hour & 20 minutes before doing this neat Middle Eastern BBQ trick since I did not have access to a BBQ this time. I also basted with canola oil like the intro allows considering it was skinless (it still was a little dry but that is because of being skinless). The trick, I put 1 tbs butter in a half shell shaped piece of a half an onion and warped aluminum foil around the outside in case the butter would leak when melted. I then put that between the chicken breasts under the broiler, and when the butter was melted I put a burning hot bukoor coal heated on the burner in the butter and quickly closed the oven until it stopped smoking. Then removed it and cooked until done. We had this with recipe#191855, recipe#276307 and an onion raita for a nice meal masha Allah. I'd like to try this on red meat on a BBQ. Made for ALMOST 5 GAME.

<p>I am a stay at home mom of two children, although, both now are in college. I am a retired Occupational Therapist. I received my degree from the Ohio State University and am a huge fan of the Ohio State Buckeyes. <br /><br /><a href=http://s169.photobucket.com/albums/u208/diner_photos/?action=view?t=BRITTANY08XMAS.jpg target=_blank><img src=http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u208/diner_photos/BRITTANY08XMAS.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></a> <br /><br /><a href=http://s169.photobucket.com/albums/u208/diner_photos/?action=view?t=DEREK08XMAS.jpg target=_blank><img src=http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u208/diner_photos/DEREK08XMAS.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></a> <br /><br /><br /><br />I have so many cook books that it is hard to pick one as my favorite, but would say I have used the Betty Crocker Cookbook the most since getting married for basic recipes. <br />I love to cook and try new recipes, but prefer simple and quick recipes. I don't like to cook things that require going to specialized grocery stores. I subscribe to several cooking magazines, that usually, require everyday on-hand ingredients. <br /><br />I am not very fond of most seafood, but do enjoy lobster, grilled shrimp and chilean sea bass. I won't cook anything with rosemary or curry, as I really don't like either herbs' flavor. And now from trying recipes, I found that I don't like dijon mustard, but love vinegar and mustard, not sure why I don't like the taste of dijon mustard.</p>
