"Fresh chiles vary greatly in taste and price. A fruity serrano gives this dish authentic Mexican flavor, but jalapenos cost less and are more commonly available. To save time, use canned tomatoes and corn in the salsa." Mary Relyea - Canastota, New York

This dish was a disappointment. The chicken was dry and tough, and the salsa was bland. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

Meh. It was okay. The chicken was a bit dry and the salsa was just average. Not something I'd make again.
