This recipe was a little too spicy for my taste, but it was still good. I will definitely be making it again, but I will use less cayenne pepper next time.

This recipe is amazing! I've made it twice now and both times it's been a hit. The first time I made it, I followed the recipe exactly. The second time, I added some of my own personal touches, like adding a bit more spice and using chicken thighs in
