Just made this tonight. I bought 1.5 lbs (3 breasts) and cut them all in half so instead of four 6 oz i had six 4 oz breast halves which cut the calories even more and was still filling. On the side i made the chili lime corn but with loose corn kernels (delicious) and some garlic chive mashed potatoes. Will absolutely make again.

I made this chicken exactly as written. This was very simple, tasty, and healthy. The chili-lime corn on the cob (I boiled instead of microwaved) complemented the chicken well. I also served with brown rice seasoned with cilantro, green onions and lime juice and a side of sautéed zucchini. There are several recipes for the chill lime corn on the cob, I used this one http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/chili-lime-corn-on-cob-10000001896098/

This was a good recipe that was quite easy to make. I either don't like cumin or there was just too much for me....I'm going to try a different seasoning next time
