I followed the recipe exactly, but the citrus chicken turned out terrible. The chicken was tough and the sauce was watery.

The citrus chicken was a disappointment. The chicken was dry and the sauce was too sour.

The citrus chicken was easy to make, but I found the flavor to be a bit bland. I think next time I'll add some more spices to the sauce.

I found the citrus chicken to be a bit too sweet, but I think that's just a matter of personal preference.

I'm not a fan of citrus, but I loved this citrus chicken. The sauce is tangy and sweet, but it's not overpowering. The chicken is cooked perfectly and is very moist. I will definitely be making this again.

This citrus chicken is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with some leftover rotisserie chicken, and it was delicious. The sauce is tangy and sweet, and it really livens up the chicken.
