The chicken was a bit dry, but the sauce was delicious.

The sauce was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by adding some cream.

The recipe was easy to follow and the ingredients were easy to find. I made a few substitutions (used ground turkey instead of chicken and added some chopped spinach) and it turned out great!

This dish was a hit with my family! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the tomato sauce had just the right amount of spice. I will definitely be making this again.
