Review: This was excellent, love this chicken dish. Tried Chicken Tequila Fettucine first at California Pizza Kitchen, just had to make it for my family afterwards. I am not much of a cook, but this recipe is excellent, really easy to make. With my first attempt, my family gobbled it up. Just delicious. You can play with a few of the ingredients to add new flavors to Chicken Tequila Fettucine, so it's a little different than the one at California Pizza Kitchen. Anyhow, Love this recipe!
