This was very enjoyable. I used a chicken breast that was cooked with lemon and herbs which really added to the overall taste. It certainly lives up to it's name of Super Quick. I had to use dried mint, 1/2 tsp, and I skipped the French Dressing mainly because I simply can't imagine it adding anything good to this dish (sorry Jewelies). Mine was finished with a squeeze of fresh lemon and a liberal sprinkling of cinnamon. Saved to two of my cookbooks for repeat preformances.

This is super quick and delicious! I cooked some chicken breasts up on my George Foreman to use in this recipe and dinner was ready in a flash. I only used about 1 tsp cumin seeds because I had never used them before and wasn't sure how potent they were, and it was perfect for me that way. The toasted cumin and pine nuts and the fresh mint give this a great flavor. I omitted the red onion and used fat free French dressing. I will definitely be making this again very soon.
