  Made this recipe last night and it was SO tasty!! I ended up marinading the chicken for longer than half an hour and the chicken was so juicy and tender! Will definately cook this again!

  I didn't have time to marinate it as long as the recipe said but it was a bit lacking in flavour. I also found that a lot of the marinade went on the skin which I then took off before I ate because I don't like it. Next time I might rub the marinade under the skin. I might also make more marinade by increasing the amount of sugar and seasoning and making it with smoked paprika instead of plain.

  It was yummy. I made this with a skinless chicken breast and it still remained tender by having the lime slices on top. Next time I shall add even more lime zest and juice.

  I thought this was very tasty. I used skinless chicken breasts, crushed a couple of garlic cloves and put it in the marinade and I chopped the chilli's and sprinkled them on top then layed the lime on top. I did cover it with foil for the 1st 15 mins so it didn't dry out and it worked well. I served it with homemade salsa.

  just wondering what you all served this with? It sounds lovely but I'm not sure it'd go with mash!!! Rice perhaps or salad?

  very nice. would add a bit of black pepper and make the marinade stickier next time. made a salsa (hairy bikers) to go with and some green leaves. would possibly serve with a timbale of rice and kidney beans next time. would recommend others try.
