I just served this for dinner and it was great! After viewing others' comments, I spiced up the chicken a bit (cooking with garlic, onion and chili powders and black pepper) and added a bit more salsa to the sauce. It did the trick. It was fast, easy and delicious. I'll definitely make it again.

I could tolerate it but DH barely did--he said it had a strange taste which I'm sure is due to the mayo as it was stronger than even I like. I'm glad I only made 1/2 the recipe...I would not like to have this in my freezer. I'm giving it 2 stars because the concept is good, just not the combination of ingredients.

It was an ok recipe.My daughter and I ate it slightly.My husband thought it had a weird after taste.I think the flour may be the flaw in this recipe.But overall, I'd make it for a bbq with friends or something...to see others opinions

I made this recipe on may1, and my family is looking forward to cinco de mayo for I could do it again, The only thing I change from the recipe is that I season my chicken and it was so delicious...
