This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times and it's always a hit. The chicken is always tender and juicy, and the sauce is flavorful and creamy. I highly recommend this recipe.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chicken didn't come out as tender as I would have liked. I think I might have overcooked it.

This is a great recipe for a quick and easy weeknight meal. The chicken is cooked in one pan, and the sauce is made in the same pan. It's a one-pot meal that's full of flavor.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. He said it was the best chicken he's ever had. I would make it again, but I would use less chipotle sauce.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but this dish was surprisingly mild. The chipotle sauce had a nice smoky flavor without being too hot. I would definitely make this again.
