I'm not sure if I would make this dish again. It was a bit too time-consuming for my weeknight cooking routine.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover chicken. It's also a good meal-prep option because it can be made ahead of time and reheated easily.

I would recommend serving this dish with a side of rice or potatoes. It's a bit too heavy to eat on its own.

This dish was a bit too greasy for my taste. I would recommend using less oil, or at least draining the excess oil before serving.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste. I would recommend using less red pepper flakes, or at least adding them gradually until you reach the desired spice level.

This dish was a bit dry. I would recommend adding some additional liquid, such as chicken stock or vegetable stock, to help moisten it up.
