This Jagasita recipe was perfect for a family dinner. The chicken was tender and juicy, and the potatoes were crispy and flavorful. The sauce was also delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

This Jagasita recipe was a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt next time. Other than that, the dish was very good. The chicken was tender and juicy, and the potatoes were crispy and flavorful.
