This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think I would use less chili sauce next time.

I thought the walnut sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste, but the chicken was cooked perfectly. I would probably make this dish again, but I would adjust the amount of sugar in the sauce.

The shredded chicken was a bit dry for my taste, but the walnut sauce was delicious. I think I'll try making this dish again with a different method for cooking the chicken.
