1 chicken breast half, cut into bite-size pieces
2 tablespoons soy sauce

This recipe was a complete disaster. The chicken was tough and dry, and the sauce was watery and tasteless.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I think it could use more seasoning.

This recipe is a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less chili peppers.
