It is amazing how great the salsa tasted. Also the chicken was very nice and tender. I will be sure to ask for this again. - 5/20/10

After reading the positive reviews, perhaps I made this incorrectly because we didn't enjoy this dish. I will say the chicken was moist, but the oat mixture was dry and chalky - I felt like I was eating Mr. Ed's dinner! We ended up scraping it off and just eating the chicken w/ the salsa. - 9/1/10

Yum Yum!! The oatmeal and spices are a great combination. Used fresh salsa from the deli. Next time I will omit the orange. I don't think they added anything.The chicken was tender and moist. DH said recipe is definitely a keeper. - 6/18/10
