This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chili pepper next time.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some leftover roasted chicken and it worked perfectly in this recipe.

This recipe was a great way to use up some clementines that I had on hand. The salsa was so bright and flavorful, and it really complemented the chicken.

The chicken paillards were a bit dry, but the clementine salsa was delicious. I would recommend using a different chicken breast cooking method, such as grilling or pan-frying.
