Very delicious meal! I had the meal for 1 and used the entire onion, as well as added a full red pepper to the chicken pan. No need to mix the sauce and mexican mix in a separate bowl, just mix it all together in the pan. The recipe also didn't include how much water so I just guessed. It turned out great! Would order again!
