This dish is a waste of time. The chicken was dry and the salsa was flavorless.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. It needed more seasoning.

This dish is a bit too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chipotle pepper next time.

I'm not a fan of avocado, but I still enjoyed this dish. The chipotle salsa was flavorful enough to make up for it.

I'm not a huge fan of spicy food, but this dish was surprisingly mild. The chipotle avocado salsa had just the right amount of heat for me.
