I'm not a big fan of chayote, but I really enjoyed this dish. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful.

The chicken chayote was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.

I love the unique flavor combination in this dish. The sweetness of the chayote pairs perfectly with the savory chicken and the creamy coconut milk.

This Filipino Chicken Chayote dish was a hit with my family! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the chayote was perfectly cooked. The flavors of the coconut milk, ginger, and lemongrass were perfectly balanced.
