Ok. Didn't taste like Chipotle's much, though. Thanks,<br/>Jan -
This was a great chicken dish! It took some time and preparation to make the marinade, but it was really quick to cook on the day we ate it. I broiled 4 chicken breasts. At first, I thought the chicken didn't have much flavor, but once I salted it, it tasted great. I used dried oregano and a small yellow onion. Overall, good dish. Made for PAC Spring 2009.
