This recipe was a huge disappointment. The chicken was dry and overcooked, and the lemongrass marinade was overpowering. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The chicken was cooked well, but the lemongrass marinade didn't add much flavor. I would recommend adding more spices or herbs to the marinade.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the lemongrass marinade was very flavorful. I would recommend this recipe to anyone who likes spicy food.
