Great recipe and very easy to make on the fly. The only change I made was to season the actual breast under the skin with some poultry season before putting it in the oven. This made a great chicken salad for lunch the following day as well! - 5/25/09

Great! I made a minor change - used cut up chicken and cooked in a non-stick skillet (oven was on the fritz). I will make this again. Might try on the grill. - 1/25/09

We left out the cardamom (didn't have any & WOW it's expensive at the supermarket), but used the rest of the spice mix and the flavor was great. It cooks more quickly if you split the chicken down the center and lay it flat--about 35-40 mins. Chicken was really juicy and flavorful. - 4/1/08
