This recipe is really good. Used white rice and chicken thighs and half the spices except for the garlic and daughter even raved. Daughters been begging me for healthier meals. This is the first time she actually liked what she was eating! - 4/22/10

I served this over brown rice and topped it with just a bit of grated cheddar cheese and fresh avocado. The spice blend was great even though I did not have cilantro it was very good without it. I will add this one to my list of favorites. Very quick to cook with flash frozen chicken breast! - 3/9/11

This recipe was simple and great! I used low sodium black beans, and low sodium diced tomatoes with green chilies. So we were able to cut the sodium down a little bit more. We also served it over yellow rice. I just finished eating some leftovers for lunch!!! - 2/21/09

This was a great dish I wanted t so bad I could taste is before it was done! I did have to do some substitues only because some of the ingredients I did not have on hand I used a black bean salsa and tabasco sauce in place of black beans and chili powder reminds me of chicken chili it was delicious - 2/20/09
