This dish is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some roasted chicken that I needed to use up, and this recipe was perfect. The walnut sauce was a great way to add flavor to the chicken.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the walnut sauce was amazing. I would definitely make this again, but I would cook the chicken for a shorter amount of time.
