    This recipe was very easy to follow. I used the GOYA GUAVA jelly instead of smuckers....instead of 1 garlic clove, I used 3-- (you can never go wrong with too much garlic. This recipe was DELICIOUS! The only thing I would say is that you can use more than 1/3 cup of Jelly if you want...Wait to make the spread after the chicken has cooked on the stove top! Tip: I also used a GOYA Mojo seasoning when I seasoned the chicken with salt and pepper...that gave it the extra flavor.

    Finding the Guava jelly proved to be difficult so I substitued it with Apricot Pineapple jelly. Delicious and easy to make. Definitely an instant favorite. Next time I will hunt the Guava jelly down and make it with that to see if there is much difference.

    Very easy and tasty. I didn't add the rosemary to the glaze because I didn't feel like buying it for this one recipe, but I don't think it would have made it much better. I used whole wheat flour instead of white flour since that's all I had and it made me feel a little better even though I knew it wasn't the healthiest of meals. I used 2 tbsp of lime juice instead of fresh limes because that is what I had in stock already. I will make it again.
