I wasn't a fan of this recipe. The chicken was dry and overcooked, and the sauce was too thin. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste, but it was still good. The chicken was tender and juicy, and the sauce was creamy. I think I would add some extra spices next time I make it.
