[email protected]This dish was a bit too bland for my taste. I would have liked it more if it had more seasoning.

[email protected]This recipe was very easy to follow, and the end result was delicious. I used a rotisserie chicken and it worked perfectly. Next time, I'm going to use chicken thighs instead of breasts.

[email protected]This recipe has now become my go-to comfort food! The chicken turned out so tender and juicy, and the sauce was incredibly flavorful. I loved that by using Greek yogurt instead of heavy cream, the dish felt lighter yet still rich.
