I thought this recipe was just okay. The chicken was a little bland and the sauce was too sweet for my taste.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my sandwiches didn't turn out as good as I expected. The chicken was dry and the asparagus was tough.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some grilled chicken breasts in the fridge and these sandwiches were the perfect way to use them up.
