I?m really not great in the kitchen?
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

That being said I accidentally used the quantity of spices as instructed but for only one piece of chicken. Dah! Despite my... kitchen blunders this recipe turned out really good. It?s delicious. I served it with carrots and rice. Yummy!Read more

Easy and good
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I probably used double the amount of spice mix for my 4 chicken breasts. It gave it a smokey, blackened chicken taste which... we just loved! We will be making this chicken recipe again. Read more

Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Looking for someway to cook chicken breast that wouldn't involve me going to the grocery store. Had leftover rice wanted... chicken. This was very easy and will be put in the recipe box to use again. Went really well with green beans and rice.Read more

Very Bland
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I hated this recipe. I had never tried an Ellie Krieger recipe before this one and I never will again. If healthy food is... this tasteless, I'd rather be fat.Read more

I don't have a grill, so just baked the chicken and it STILL came out amazingly delicious! I made no modifications to the... amount of spices and it was perfect! I will be making this one again! Read more
