We really liked this, although took the advice from the previous reviewer and cut back on the juice and lemon pepper a bit. We also boiled the potato slices for about 4 minutes before we put them in the pan, and they turned out perfectly. The chicken comes out very tender, and with a good flavor. If you want some color on the chicken, you'd better brush it with a bit of butter after you uncover it, and then bake it for the 10 uncovered minutes.

Ohh I really wanted this to work. I love cilantro and lemon chicken but this was just to much. To much cilantro, to much lemon. Funny thing is I even halfed everything and still to much. I soaked the potatoes and they still didn't cook right. I did not care for this recipe.

Should've listened to the reviews...... I really like lemony, cilantro recipes but thought this was way to strong, and the flavours did not blend together at all. Also the potatoes took way linger to cook than indicated in the recipe! One star here, sorry.

This was pretty good! My boyfriend who loves lemon and cilantro loved it. I actually added diced tomatoes for more color. Will make again.

I would give this recipe 0 stars if I could. Maybe I put in too much lemon juice, but it was horrible. To me, not even edible. Plus, the other review was right, for some reason, even though I sliced the potatoes less than 1/4 inch thick, they did not cook. I would look for another dish.

I've tried several recipes before with meat and potatoes in the same dish, and the potatoes are always undercooked unless I cook them prior to putting in the pan with the rest of the ingredients. So that's what I did--I cubed the potatoes instead of slicing, and cooked in microwave about six minutes until they were practically cooked. I then just added to the chicken, coated with the mixture and baked as directed. I like the flavors in this recipe, but they are strong. So if you aren't a big fan of lemon or lemon pepper, I wouldn't try this. To be fair, though, I did marinate my chicken overnight bc it was frozen, so I defrosted it in the lemon cilantro marinade. Also, I think this makes a lot. I scaled down to one serving but only used one chicken breast bc bf is gone this week, and I have enough for leftovers. Thanks for the recipe!

I made this with basmati rice instead of potatoes. I baked the chicken and put some of the lemon juice and half of the cilantro in the rice. I should have used the entire bunch of cilantro (I halved it due to other comments)and I'll use lime in the future. I really could have used an entire bunch of cilantro in the rice alone, and then another 1/2 a bunch in the marinade. My family eats a LOT of cilantro (3-6 bunches a week), so we can go pretty heavy on the cilantro.
