The sauce was too sweet for my taste. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar in the recipe.

This recipe is missing important details. It doesn't specify the size or amount of chicken to use, and it doesn't provide any guidance on how to adjust the cooking time for different size pieces of chicken.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken came out a little dry. Maybe I should have cooked it for less time.
