Oh yes! This is a great recipe! I bought the chicken prepared (butterflied)and ready to go..nice and quick dish on a week night! We loved the flavors in the sauce! Served it with rice (won't mention because of contest) what a wonderful meal. Thank you!!

We really enjoyed this SUPER easy and tasty dish! I had everything on hand which made it so much easier. I added some onion powder and really that was the only thing I did different! Thanks Susie!

The cornmeal/bread crumb combination gives a lovely crunchy crust and the chili /garlic powder a nice kick to the chicken. the Jalapeno Cilantro Cream is just right. I know that I will use this cream on potaoes and many other veggies as well as when I make this recipe again I cut way back on the oil for frying the chicken. You have done a nice job of incorporating the RSC ingredients into a tasty recipe. I hope that you do well in the contest this recipe is a winner

The jalapeno cilantro cream is KEY! I let it chill for 2 hours, and when I served it with the chicken it was very nice and refreshing.

I loved the jalapeno cilantro creme sauce it was a real nice addition to the chicken. I also liked the chicken, I just think it could have had a little more kick to it. I will make this again, but I might try adding a pinch of cayenne. Thanks!

Different. One of the easier recipes to prepare in the RSC contest which is a plus. My family was not really impressed with the combo of the sauce and the chicken and ended up eating the chicken plain. They also said they wanted more flavor in the chicken- like some onion flavor or seasoned salt. Good luck in RSC!

This was a fiesta in my mouth! The cilantro creme was my favorite part. I let it sit for over an hour and it made a huge difference in the flavor. I'm going to put the left over chicken on a green salad tomorrow for lunch and use a bit of the cilantro creme as a dressing. I used 1 1/2 boneless, skinless, thighs- about 8- and had quite a bit of the breadcrumb left over so I may adjust it -if I do the thighs again. This one is truly a winner Susie! Made because I appreciate all of the PAC Hosts!- 09 EDIT- DBF made sure I packed up some of the chicken for his lunch tomorrow too- which is saying a lot because he is not into left-overs!

Loved this! The cilantro creme WAS the best part... Added some Tabasco to the egg mixture based on other's feedback that the chicken is bland, loved it! We'll definitely make this again.

I didn't butterfly my chicken but my chicken breast were thinner . I cut the breading mix in half since I was only doing two but the kept the full sauce amounts and am glad I did LOL As for the chicken being bland we did not find that at all. It is subtly spiced which is a good thing with the creme being so filled with flavour. It gets no competion that way LOL I used freshly grated garlic and not the powder and grated the ginger instead of mincing. We loved this recipe and will be made over and over. Made for PAC Fall 09

very good & easy. The whole family gobbled it down & it wasn't even spicy. I think the sour cream cooled down the jalepeno. The sauce could use just a little more flavor. I will need to play around with it. But overall an easy & family friendly meal
