    We made this with veggie and cashew stirfry #180144, and it was a good pairing. I think this chicken isn't so much bland as it is mild flavoured. The cooking method worked great and I'd even say I had too much sauce? Thanks for the recipe.

    It was quick and easy. It was a little bland - but I think that could be solved by increasing the sauce. Overall, it was good and we will be cooking it again.

    Delicious! This was also as easy to make as advertised. I used the textured end of the meat tenderizer to pound out the chicken, and found that the flavor penetrated very well that way. I also used my Foreman Grill to cook it - I made 2 breasts (cooking them one at a time) and I don't think it took 15 minutes. Thanks!

    this was great.. I tried it in a george foreman, but the sauce kept burning before the chicken got cooked, so I transferred it over to the oven and broiled it instead. It was still pretty good, thanks a lot!
