This made some wonderful burritos, and I bet it would be great sliced up on a big salad, too! I didn't have enough chicken to make 8 breasts, so I halved everything. I also don't have an outdoor grill yet, so I cooked them on my Foreman grill. I really liked how simple this was to throw together before bed for cooking the next day. I sliced up the cooked chicken and wrapped it up into big flour tortillas with some shredded cheese and leftover refried beans. In fact, I bet my coworkers are going to be jealous of my dinner tonight! This is definitely on my list of recipes to make as soon as I get an outdoor grill. Thanks for posting! Made for PAC Spring 08
