    This is very similar to something I make, but for the extra heat I add a few spicy peppers to onion /pepper mix. Jalapeno, Serrano, sometimes habanero. Sliced thin and seeded.

    Very good! I will make this recipe again. I added chili powder to the chicken along with the cumin. I also made a sauce with sour cream and cumin, chili powder, sugar and lemon juice. It was delicious.

    Quite a tasty recipe, but I only give it 4 stars because it was the additions to the dish that really made this delicious. First, I marinaded the chicken for a couple of hours with a little less salt. Then I put the chicken and vegetable mixture over jalapeno quinoa and topped it with sliced avocado and chopped cilantro. Add a bit of sour cream or sharp cheddar and this makes for a fantastic, healthy, and really fresh meal.

    A little bland. The second time I made it I added 1 tsp of ancho chili pepper and 1 tsp of cayenne pepper.
    It received rave reviews!

    Great recipe we substituted honey for the sugar it made a difference, the new flavor was more mellow but just as sweet.

    These are delicious! There's quite a bit of prep work but it's worth it and the actual cooking time is pretty short.

    A note on salt: some reviews find these too salty. This is a recurring issue with Nigella's recipes and I think it's because of the salt she uses. She calls for twice the amount of kosher salt as table salt. This ratio holds true for Diamond Crystal Kosher Salt. But Morton's Kosher salt is more commonly used and it is only slightly less salty than table salt. You use it amount-for-amount up to 1 tsp.; more than that, add 1/4 to the amount of table salt. So: if Nigella calls for 1 T. of kosher salt, use 1/2 T. table salt or 5/8 T. of Morton's kosher salt. Hope that helps!

    Not bad, added only 1/2 a tablespoon of kosher salt since it seemed that 1 was too much. I also wouldn't add olive oil to the chicken for marinating. It never gave the lime a chance to sink in to the meat. Plus I had issues with the temperatures that the recipe called for when cooking the onion, way too hot. Other than that, pretty tasty.

    A huge dissapointment. The salt ruined the chicken - the herbs didn't come through and overall I wouldnt even give it one star. Very frustrated! Will stick with Jamie in future sorry Nige!

    Really good recipe! I've tried this recipe a few times & they have tasted wonderful every time. Very "restaurant style". I use a grill pan to make mine & use olive oil & garlic powder since I don't have "garlic flavored oil". I sometimes add diced garlic too, if I have it on hand. Very happy with this recipe!

    Really easy to make and tasted authentic. I had my chicken with salad rather than in a tortilla and felt it was a tiny bit salty but still tasted gorgeous. The rest of my family had them in wraps and really enjoyed them. Thanks Nigella!
