This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and herbs, and it turned out much better. I would recommend experimenting with different seasonings to find the perfect flavor combination for your taste.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The chicken was tender and juicy, and the pasta was cooked al dente. I would recommend using less chili powder next time.
