Ok - this is so NOT something that I would normally waste my time trying or even cooking. I am a woman who needs substance - a meat and potato kind of woman, but I had to give this a try and I give it 4 out of 5 forks! Read more I posted the recipe as I found it but I, of course, changed it up a bit. I only used 2 breast-es-es and I let them marinate overnight - sooooo good. I also used a finely diced white onion because I wanted a little more kick. Oh - I'd also make the salsa first to give all of the flavors of the ingredients time to 'marry' and maybe I'd chill it as well. See less
