This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. The sauce is easy to make and the chicken reheats well.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken was dry and overcooked. The sauce was also too runny.

This recipe is easy to follow and the chicken came out delicious. The sauce is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still a great recipe.
