    These are really good. I have made them several times and I find that mixing all ingredients before cooking the chicken works better for me. My husband and I make them every few weeks for a lunch or a light dinner on the weekends. Very flavorful and easy to put together. - 2/3/09

    Very Good
    I call these chicken llapingachos. Llapingachos are potato patties I'd eat in Ecuador and these taste so similar. I do not add teh BBQ sauce. I weighed the granules and breast and it came out to be 1 1/3 c granules and 1 lg. breast for me. - 4/9/10

    This was delicious. I loved it. Will definitely make this again. BTW, the patties tend to get firmer as they cool down. I had some leftover and the leftover patties were much firmer than the patties that were eaten while hot/warm. - 12/25/09
