    I made this last night and it was great! I used chicken breasts instead of thighs, and it turned out very well. And so full of fiber - I was stuffed! Thank you! - 12/30/10

    This was quite delicious! I was gone from home for almost 12 hours - I used frozen chix thighs (4) and cut the sweet potatoes in bigger chunks. This had great flavor and was very yummy and easy. Thanks! - 10/26/10

    So, so good! I used chicken breasts instead of thighs and added more salsa for an extra kick. This dish was extremely filling and there was a lot left over. I will definitely be making this again! - 9/10/10
