I'm not sure what I did wrong, but the chicken was tough and the sauce was bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken came out a little dry. I think I might have cooked it for too long. Otherwise, the dish was delicious.

I love this recipe! The chicken is always so tender and juicy, and the shiitake mushrooms add a great flavor. I also like that it's a one-pot meal, so it's easy to clean up.
