    This chicken dish is a guaranteed winner every time I serve it! I prefer the richness of roasted green chiles so I substitute them for the jalapanos. I usually add a 1/4-cup of Triple Sec instead of the orange juice so I guess I really have Margarita chicken : Grilled or roasted in the oven at 350-degrees for 18-20 minutes, this is wonderful for Sunday brunch with guacamole, black beans and a side of rice. I make a simple salsa to serve on top.

    I rated the ingredients because I haven't tried it out yet but will next week. But I have a question after reading ddhankinson and rramsey's reviews regarding the "something's missing" factor. Do you guys think that maybe some of the marinade can be reserved and then cooked/thickened on the stovetop to be used as a sauce when serving the chicken? Giada has a recipe where she marinades wings in a balsamic mix and then reserves/cooks some to later use as a sauce. Think that this might be the missing factor?

    This has become a signature dish in my house! My family loves anything with a southwestern taste to it and this hit the spot! It came out very tender and juicy with plenty to go around! Thanks Ina!

    I think it is a very good weeknight meal with a lot of flavor. Anybody that has to be mean and call someone names is very immature and should not consider themselves worthy of this site!

    first time here and i hope to use the reviews to learn. The best response to personal comments similar to "wanna be house wife cook" is no response but, personally i am a man who once upon a time was a "wanna be house wife cook" while i raised the kids and my wife worked.

    Evalynn....did you even make this recipe? I don't really understand your criticism of Ina being a "wannabe cook housewife". If we were to use your argument then all chefs on foodnetwork are "wannabe cook housewives" since they all provide exact measurements. If you don't like the recipe then criticize the recipe and not the chef.

    We call this the Margarita Chicken. So very flavorful and juicy. Great served with Basmati Rice and a Mango Salsa on the side. LOVE THIS ONE, INA

    Very ordinary tasting chicken....could have just as easily used a store bought marinade. It needs some sort of sauce maybe or a really excellent side dish.

    I usually love Ina's recipes, but I think this one needs a little something more -- not sure what, though. I followed the marinade recipe except for adding twice as much garlic and jalapeno than called for (and a little bit of vegetable oil as recommended by another reviewer, as we like a lot of heat and spice. I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and ended up baking them (30 minutes at 350 degrees. I was very pleased with the texture and how moist they were, but disappointed that they were rather bland. With the leftover chicken, I hope that serving them with a hot salsa will kick up the flavor a little more.
