This dish was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. I probably won't make it again.

This dish was too spicy for me. I would omit the red pepper flakes next time.

The lentils were a little undercooked for my liking. I would cook them for a few minutes longer next time.

I'm not a fan of spicy food so I omitted the red pepper flakes. It was still very flavorful.

I'm a vegetarian so I omitted the chicken and added extra lentils. It was still really good!

I made a few substitutions to the recipe and it still turned out great. I used brown lentils instead of green lentils, and I added a diced red bell pepper.

This dish was absolutely delicious! The chicken was tender and juicy, the lentils were cooked perfectly, and the spinach added a nice pop of flavor. I will definitely be making this again.
