Had this chicken for dinner with a slight variation. We did not have honey roasted nuts, but regular peanuts...so we just added some honey. It turned out quite well. Very delicious combination. Thanks Jen!! -
I took the previous reviewer's advice and cut down the McCormick's to a teaspoon. I also skipped the skillet step and just baked it. It was wonderful. Thanks! -
I tried this after it came out on her show. It was really good, but I couldn't taste the nuts because the McCormick's was overpowering. I love spicy food, but I thought that I should be able to taste more nuts than pepper. Next time I will only add a teaspoon of the McCormick's.
