I was hopeful that this recipe would be good because it is so easy, but it is bland without additions. I try and cook low-sodium, so I did not want to add salt, but it definitely needed it. Also, I had to use ketchup/louisiana sauce for the chicken because it was so tasteless, even with adding a garlic & herbs seasoning blend to the paprika. And I had poured the OJ over the chicken too. With salt, ketchup, and Louisiana sauce, it tastes good, but that doesn't say much for the original recipe.
