Good, but far from what I would have expected and far from the usual quality of FN....

Made this dish exactly as instructed. Used NewCastle Brown Ale for the beer. I love all the flavors and think it was spot on. Thank You Chef.

This was delicious and super easy! I used vegetable broth and parsley (instead of cilantro, and agree with Wstekng that it needs a bit more liquid in order to cook through. It was a bit salty, so next time I will lessen the salt. I used Sam Adams Boston Lager, and the dish was a great compliment to baked lemon pepper chicken breasts. Enjoy!
