This recipe was terrible! I followed the recipe perfectly & thought it was going to be a yummy dish...well....I WAS WRONG! It has no flavor at all and is just boring. Boiled chicken might taste better than this. I cook ... ALOT and this is by far the worst thing I have ever tried to make. Very disappointing!

This recipe was an instant hit at the dinner table! The chicken turned out so moist and juicy (and I only left it marinating for 2 and 1/2 hours, I bet it would taste even better if left to marinate over night! This recipe is so simple and easy anyone could do it. It is perfect for households on a budget!
