    Replaced thighs with breast meat. This recipe is flawless. Absolutely delicious, simple and filling. The chimichurri sauce is the key. I keep getting amazed by the recipes I find here.

    Solid Recipe, good flavor. Day old rice is key. If you’re a person who can’t do cilantro like me then use all parsley. I added a Fresno chili to the chimichurri for a little heat.

    Recipe is great but I don’t think you mention when to add the tomatoes. I just threw them in at the end. Either way 10/10

      Nevermind I’m an idiot. I see the tomatoes now. I swear I read this 5 times before I posted the comment. Oh well
