This recipe has potential, but it needs some tweaking. The sauce was a bit too bland for my taste, and the chicken was a bit dry. I think next time I'll add some more herbs and spices to the sauce, and I'll marinate the chicken in olive oil before co

This dish was a bit too lemony for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less lemon juice.
