Join the discussionThis recipe is great. We repeat it often in my household. It helps to break the monotony of “usual” flavored chicken
We made this tonight with salad mix. I made with extra marinade and used as a dressing for my garden salad. It was very good!!!
So glad you liked this recipe Nerina. Great idea on making extra marinade for your salad dressing!
This is SO good and SO easy!! Made it tonight with grilled potato wedges and corn on the cob. Very little planning since I had everything but the chicken! The meal was a hit with my entire family!!
That’s great to hear, Jayne! It’s always a wonderful feeling when the entire family loves it AND it was easy! Thanks for sharing and the yummy side dish ideas!
