This salad was a disaster! The chicken was tough and the dressing was too sweet. I would not recommend this recipe.

This salad was a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding more spices or herbs to the chicken.

This salad was a bit too spicy for my taste, but the chicken was crispy and the dressing was flavorful. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper next time.
