falling off the bone, awesome 🙂
Our family enjoyed this recipe and it was very easy to fix. I didn’t have the cayenne so I can’t say that I followed it exactly. I used chili powder instead. Still very good, especially over the rice. Thanks for this recipe.
Very delicious recipe! I used chicken drum sticks as I did not have any wings available and just plain white rice since I was out of Tumeric. Added some of the extra sauce to the rice. This dish was a hit in my family! Very flavourful and easy to prepare. Will definitely be making this one again.
This was a great recipe! My wife and I used it for chicken breasts instead of wings and it worked great! I forgot to cover the pan, so the sauce didn’t work out so well and it dried onto the chicken, but I spooned what was on the bottom of the pan over the chicken and that went a long way. Used brown rice for the the rice dish. It was okay. Will probably use again.
This came out excellent. I didn’t have any tomato soup, just used a can of tomato paste watered down. Also didn’t have any tumeric so I substituted with onion and garlic sazon. For the rice, I used whole cloves and subbed the almonds for craisins. I also used basmati and the rice came out subtle sweet. Overall, I loved the dish and it was easy to make. Next time I might try to make the chicken in a slow cooker.
This was wonderful. I used chicken breasts and thighs instead of wings, and the aroma while it was cooking drove the whole family crazy with anticipation. A very savory dish and one I will be making again and again.
