I know that I'm an easy grader BUT to me this is worth all 5 start as my DH ate it with gusto and cleaned his plate!! I used 3 thin slices of ginger and pulled it out after cooking so he wouldn't see it and we both loved it. I might add that we're currently in a real heat wave and the last thing I want to do id use the oven. I cooked this, covered, on the top shelf of the outdoor grill with the lid down. Took the foil off for about the last 10 mins. Oh yeah, and I used a large baking potato diced. -
this was easy and good. I also used small potatoes and we served this with mixed vegetables. A very easy and good dinner. Thanks for sharing! -
Next time I will add more ginger... I could hardly taste it. It was a very moist chicken and easy. I used 3 small red potatoes. Made for 1-2-3 Hits Tag Game 2010. -
This is an easy and flavorful chicken dish! I halved the recipe and used a small red potato. Very tasty and healthy - thanks for posting this recipe! -
Overall very good, my 4 chicken breasts weighed between 7 1/4 and 8 ounces so allowed 45 minutes cooking time for them and used 4 medium potatoes cut into quarters (should have cut smaller as even after an hours cooking they were still a little raw but the chicken was becoming too dry, so we served). I did use parsley instead of cilantro/coriander as we don't like it and overall the meal was enjoyable. I was surprised at the DM eating the potatoe wedges as normally she will not eat potatoes with skin on. Thank you TereseS, one we will try again, made for Please Review My Recipe.
