It's just me, a camera and enough curiosity to keep a blog going for years... My motto is: Real food. Real life. It ain't always pretty. http://christie-corner.blogspot.com/

I would love to try this recipe but don't have a ricer. Can you suggest an alternative method?
Thanks.

I made this tonight and my husband loved it. His only complaint was he wanted more of the cilantro sauce. I cooked a bigger than average chicken that took ALL the sauce, so there was nothing left.
Next time, I think I'll try this with chicken thighs to up the ratio of sauce to meat. My butcher sells chicken thighs so big they take about 75 minutes to cook. I think the sauce will have enough time to work it's magic. Do you?
