I made this dish for a party and it was a big hit! Everyone loved the chicken and the salsa verde. I will definitely be making this again.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a spicy salsa verde. Next time I'll use a milder salsa.

I'm not a big fan of chicken Kiev, but this Mexican-style version was really good. The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the salsa verde was the perfect complement.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken turned out dry and overcooked. The salsa verde was also bland. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I made this dish last night and it was delicious! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they cooked perfectly. The salsa verde was also very good. I served it over rice and it was a complete meal.
