This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some cooked chicken in my fridge, and I didn't know what to do with it. I found this recipe online, and it was perfect. The chicken was delicious, and the sauce was flavorful and zesty.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The chicken was cooked well, and the vegetables were crisp and flavorful. I would recommend using less chili powder next time.
