Amazing! The sauce was delicious and the chicken tender. Even my picky kids loved it.

Good taste. Chicken took a long time to cook with the skillet, I would recommend searing the sides and sticking the chicken in the oven to finish cooking.

Loved it. Make sure you reduce the sauce before you add the cream and it will turn out perfect. It is a spicy dish and it has a lot of flavor. I served it with grilled baby red potatoes.

Made it with low-fat milk instead of heavy cream and it turned out pretty tasty, and healthier than it would have been with cream

Loved it! I added extra cilantro because I love cilantro and it was great. I’d skip the red pepper flakes if it’s for kids. Too spicy for my 3 year old.

I added cornstarch with the cream in order to thicken the sauce. It's great over rice and makes good leftovers.

So tasty! We even messed up the recipe and it still tasted great! We used chicken thighs instead, used low sodium broth and skipped on adding salt. Great recipe!!!

I would totally make this again! My only concern was that my sauce was a bit watery so I added some flour to thicken it up. This dish would be great over roasted potatoes. I think that’s what I’ll do with it next time instead of rice.

I added a 1/4 cup more broth, added a bit more sour cream, and double the red pepper flakes. I added the other half of cilantro and pepper flake at the end as garnish. Served this over steamed broccoli - pure love!!!!! Delicious!!!

Added a bit more lime and about 1/4c more of cream bc one of four chicken breasts was huge. Made a big difference. Added a bit more crushed red pepper too. Easy and delicious!

The sauce was liquidy and the chicken didn’t cook well but other than that an overall great dish!

William Klauberg 17 May
delicious and easy. had to tweak a couple of things in the recipe as the called for temperature was too hot and the suggested substitute of greek yogurt didn't blend too well but the m meal was great
Cindy 13 May

Picky family members liked it. The chicken breasts i used were really large si the sauce wasn't as creamy as pictured. Would for sure make it again.
Julie Yarbor 7 May
