This sounds AWFUL! Nuked chicken, flour tortilla strips (they should be crispy corn tortilla chips) and virtually no flavor. The chicken should be boiled quickly, not nuked. Gross!

Herb Crusted Lamb with Mint Sauce
Instead of cooking ham or prime rib for Easter, why not try something new this year? Our Herb-Crusted Lamb with Mint Sauce may look and sound fancy, but it's really easy to do. It's basically a rack of lamb that's coated with herbs and spices before it's roasted to perfection. Just before serving, it's finished off with a mint-wine reduction. The end result is an Easter-worthy main dish that'll impress everyone at the table.
