This dish was a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt in the lemon-dill sauce. Otherwise, the chicken and asparagus were cooked perfectly.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. The chicken was dry and the asparagus was undercooked. The lemon-dill sauce was also lacking in flavor. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.
