Reviews
I read a post where Guy mentioned using chicken or turkey off the bone. But you must use what you have—I baked chicken breast tenderloins with olive oil and cilantro before adding to the sauce. However, I cannot wait to try with bone in poultry. Amazing and easy! I used 1800 tequila great flavor and was a hit with my in laws. Will be a regular recipe for us!
