I think this recipe could be improved with a few changes. I would add more spices to the chicken and use a different type of sauce.

I had to make a few substitutions because I didn't have all of the ingredients on hand, but the dish still turned out great. I used chicken thighs instead of breasts and added some chopped vegetables to the sauce. My family loved it!

I followed the recipe to a T and the chicken turned out perfectly. The phyllo crust was crispy and golden brown, while the chicken was moist and tender. The sauce was also delicious, with a nice balance of sweet and sour.
