    Is this 3lbs of chicken breasts or 1 3lbchicken cooked then cut up??

    This is one chicken that is three pounds. You should chop it up, but it doesn’t have to be pre-cooked. But you can substitute three pounds of chicken breast and that should work fine.

    Just tried this for the first time tonight. It didn’t look like much, but man was it tasty. Can’t wait to eat the leftovers.

    I made this tonight due to having to switch up some meals. I also had to sub boneless pork chops for the chicken breasts. This definitely makes up quite a lot of food, so there’s definitely enough for leftovers. This recipe bursts with some amazing flavors and textures, and is definitely amazing.
