First meal good; looking forward to using it in a wrap with a cool & crisp slaw!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Super easy; used 5 skimpy chicken breasts; used PickaPeppa sauce instead of Worcestershire; used a combo of bland California... canned black olives & pimento stuffed green olives. Basically, what I had in my cupboard & fridge. Next time I will serve the chicken with chopped cilantro or green onions over it for contrast in color. Tomorrow we will have a fabulous lunch with the leftovers chopped up and rolled with a shredded carrot slaw/rice wine vinegar/shallots/touch of cumin in whatever wraps are in the fridge. Thank yous to Robin & team.Read more

I thought this recipe was delicious, and the leftovers go great in a salad. Plus it is incredibly easy to make.

So good!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

My husband loved this, and he is hard to please when it comes to baked chicken. I marinated the chicken for about 6 hours... before I cooked it, and I left out the olives because I didn't have any. This recipe is a keeper!Read more

fantastic!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made the sauce the night before the food delivery arrived and then assembled it and cooked it while I was unloading/putting... away groceries...then I used the extra chicken to make Robin's Lime Curry stew (usually calls for shrimp - I substituted with this chicken) - so easy to get two dinners out!
