This dish is a bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. Next time I'll use less cayenne pepper.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but my chicken didn't brown very well. It was still tasty, but it didn't look as appetizing as the pictures.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth the effort. The chicken is so tender and flavorful, and the sauce is to die for.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some roasted chicken from the night before and it worked perfectly in this recipe.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the almonds for pine nuts. It turned out great!

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of dates next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my chicken turned out dry and the sauce was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.
