    I didn't think it was all that great for the amount of different ingredients that went into it.

    Basil, Cilantro and Macadamia Nut Chicken, Not your ordinary weeknight chicken, but after marinating, the dish is ready in about 1/2 hour! Make it the night before and you have a quick, delicious treat for dinner The flavor will have you filling your plate again and again , I didn’t think it was all that great for the amount of different ingredients that went into it , This was very good and we will be eating this again I couldn’t quite understand what you meant by the marinade will stick to the chicken, but it sure did! I think it’s easy and yummy We kept a side of the sauce to use as dip (of course it wasn’t the marinade from touching the chicken) Thanks for a keeper!
