I'm not sure what went wrong, but my chicken came out dry and tough. The sauce was also very bland. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more spices or herbs. The chicken was cooked perfectly, though.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. The lemongrass and ginger give the chicken a lot of flavor and the sauce is very tasty. I would definitely make this again.
