This meal lacked taste and generally was nothing special. I didn't even want to keep the leftovers. Disappointing for sure.

This dish is amazing, I added some jalepenos and cayenne pepper for more spice and flavor.

I made this dish for my boyfriend and I. The chicken was tender and cooked thouroughly, but as for flavor, it was a little bland. I would probably try again, with a few alterations such as maybe a spicy taco mix or adding a few different kinds of peppers
