This dish was a bit bland for my taste. The chicken was cooked well, but it needed more seasoning. The asparagus was also a bit overcooked. The dill sauce was the best part of the dish.

I'm not a fan of dill, but I really enjoyed this dish. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the asparagus was still slightly crisp. The sauce was also very good, even without the dill.
