The chicken was a bit overcooked, but the flavors were still good.

Not bad, but not great. The chicken was a bit bland and the slaw was too vinegary.

Easy to make and delicious! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they cooked perfectly. I also added some chopped cilantro to the slaw and it was a great addition.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the flavors were good. I think I'll try marinating the chicken next time.
