Very Good w/ modifications!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I will be the 1st to admit that Robin Miller's recipes are usually just basic with not much flavor and usually not very high... ratings. I do however browse through them for some inspirations and this one definitely inspired me. I cooked my chicken with some onion, garlic, chili powder, cumin,salt, pepper, and threw in some black beans at the end. I sprinkled fresh cilantro and lime juice over the chicken/black bean mixture and topped my tostadas with it. I then melted some mexican cheese blend on top. Then topped them with everything... onions, lettuce, tomato, sour cream, jalapenos, fresh made guacamole (only takes 1 minute with a food processor), and the cilantro lime vinaigrette. They were absolutely DELICIOUS! I thought the cilantro lime vinaigrette was not so good when u just stick your finger in it to taste it, but when you put it ontop the tostadas it gives them a little "zing". It makes people wonder.. what is that?? I will definitely put the vinaigrette on all my tacos from now on! Thanks for the inspiration Robin!Read more

Not much flavor
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

It was easy to make but the dressing didn't provide enough flavor for the dish. I think marinating the chicken in some way... and adding onions may help with the lack of flavor. In any case, I wouldn't make this dish again.Read more

Great and easy
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is a great recipe, I ended up needing more vinaigrette than called for so I would suggest making extra. I also added... pepper jack cheese. Read more

Really refreshing and delish
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this last night when it was 99.9 degrees out! I bought a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store so I didn't have to... grill or bake anything. I really liked the dressing, I was skeptical because it's chicken broth, which I didn't think would taste like a dressing, and cilantro, which to me tastes like soap. But it was light and refreshing! I also cooked the tortilla's in a pan with some oil instead of in the oven. I added avacado and a dollop of sour cream. I liked it a lot!! Will be making this more during the summer.Read more
