I followed the recipe exactly, but my chicken turned out dry. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think I can adjust the amount of sugar next time.

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out great. The chicken is always juicy and the sauce is delicious. I like to serve it over rice or noodles.
