I was disappointed with this recipe. The chicken was dry and the salsa was watery. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This dish was a bit too time-consuming for me. I had to marinate the chicken for several hours and then cook it for over an hour. I would recommend this recipe for a special occasion, but not for a weeknight meal.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The chicken was not very flavorful and the salsa was lacking in spice. I would recommend adding more seasonings to the chicken and salsa next time.

This dish was a bit too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. The chicken was cooked well and the salsa was flavorful. I would recommend using less chili powder next time.
