pound out the chicken if you want it to fall apart in your mouth. also, you can use lemon instead of lime juice and its good to go overboard with it. consider adding a splash of white cooking wine to the recipe. lastly, i like to add the cilantro right before I serve it, so it still has that beautiful green color and isn't wilted.

Great recipe. My husband and I love it. I agree with everyone else, use more garlic and lime, and I didn't cut the chicken into pieces. I guess that's if you have kids. Still, it's my new favorite recipe!

This isn't your out of the world thing to make for someone I guess depending on how you look at it but this is a very simple easy to make recipe. This is one of those meals if you are working all day you can heat up something good and quick for the family. I enjoyed it simple,quick,and easy.

This recipe was very simple and easy, I had all the ingredients on hand. I didn't use fresh cilantro, I'm not sure how much of difference that made but it was very tasty, extremely quick meal. Usiing this recipe for fajitas sounds like a great idea.

This recipe was very good. I added cumin for extra flavor. My kids loved it. Next time i am going to add some tequila to bring out more flavor.

There is a lot of cilantro in it. We do not care that much for cilantro, so it was really too much.

This recipe is so easy to make and the chicken has a wonderful flavor. I put it in tortillas with black beans and rice. Delicious!

some changes: juice of one whole lime, and one whole lemon. used 5 garlic cloves, and next time will use more. didnt cut up chicken, just kept breasts whole. was delicious but next time i will only use 2 Tbsp of olive oil, had a bunch left over that seemed unnecessary taste and calorie wise. husband and company loved this, and was very easy. good stuff, thank you.

This was a good meal, served with Uncle Ben's original wild rice and steamed broccoli. It wasn't exactly what I was expecting, though. My family enjoyed it as is, but I found it a bit lacking. If I make it again, I think I will add a little lemon juice as well to balance out the sweetness of the lime, or maybe a sprinkle of cayenne. I also think I will leave the chicken breasts whole, too, cutting them up was rather time consuming. Thanks for the recipe Nini, I am going to hang onto it.

This was a good recipe. The second time I made it I doubled the garlic and caramelized the lime so I could drizzle it over the chichen just before serving. To caramelize the lime: remove chicken from skillet and add approximately 2 tablespoons sugar and the lime juice. (I used 4 tablespoons lime juice.) Heat at medium, while stirring until sugar has dissolved. Then raise the heat and allow to bubble for 2 minutes. Yum!

Very simple and easy. Doesn't make a lot a sauce for the rice so I made the rice with chicken broth and onions. Very good leftovers.

This was just great - a simple yet tasty dish that the whole family enjoyed. Because there are so few ingredients, I was expecting a somewhat bland meal, but the combination of cilantro and lime juice really eliminated the need for any other spices. I used quite a bit more garlic than the recipe called for (we're garlic-aholics!), and used pre-cut chicken strips for a super quick meal. Definitely a meal we'll have again and again!
