Saw this recipe and decided to try it. All day, both my husband and I looked forward to dinner time. Sadly, we were both disappointed in the flavor. Not exactly sure what I did wrong, as I followed the recipe exactly, which is something I rarely do. Not something we’ll have again.
I am going to try the chicken cacciatore crock pot recipe next. Maybe I’ll have more luck with that.

By trying this recipe myself. I think that the recipe should be 4 tsp of paprika rather than 4 tbsp. Taking a look at the picture again, didn’t look the same when I’ve made it.

I love this recipe but I’d like to know the recipe for the potatoes and vegetables that you show with the garlic chicken in the picture. Can you tell me how you cook them and what their point value is?

The potatoes that you see in the picture are just roasted red potatoes that have been roasted in the oven with a bit of non-fat cooking spray and salt. Then I served the lemon garlic chicken over them with some of the sauce. For the points value, it will depend on the amount of potatoes you use. According to Weight Watchers, 1 cup of cooked red potatoes is 2 Points. So if you add that to each serving, you’d be adding on 2 Points to each serving. Hope that helps!

I have to agree with earlier comments, mine looked nothing like the picture. I think the recipe calls for the wrong amount of paprika. I halved the recipe (4 chicken breasts instead of 8) and only put in 2 teaspoons of paprika instead of tablespoons, and the chicken still turned out bright red and very spicy. There was a hint of lemon in the aftertaste and you could tell that the onions had picked up the lemon flavoring. I also added a couple squirts of lemon juice to mine while it was cooking. Next time I might just eliminate the paprika from the recipe altogether.
