j8@gmail.comI love spicy food, so I added a bit of cayenne pepper to the chicken and potatoes. It gave the dish a nice kick, and it really brought out the flavors of the other ingredients.

h-ervin16@yahoo.comI made a few modifications to make this dish healthier. I used whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour, and I baked the chicken and potatoes instead of frying them. It was still delicious and satisfying, but it was also much better for me.
