“This was delicious!!I used my food processor to grind the almonds.The chicken turned out very moist.Loved the almond flavor with the chicken.Thanks Dancer^”
“I made this just as stated.I found the almonds did nothing to the taste.Simply another chicken dish without very much flavor, sorry.”
“Wonderful. I echo the previous reviews–the chicken was really moist inside its delightful crunchy coating.I used half butter and half peanut oil to saute the chicken.This is one of the best chicken preparations I ever have had.”
“Wonderful flavor.The chicken is moist and the sauce is a great complement to it.I used already ground almonds.DH cut up some of his chicken and put it in his salad.”
