I'm allergic to pineapple, so I substituted peaches. It turned out great!

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it.

I'm not a big fan of sweet and sour dishes, but this one was surprisingly good. The flavors were well-balanced and the chicken was cooked perfectly.

I've made this dish with chicken thighs and chicken breasts and both turned out great. It's also a great dish to make ahead of time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the dish turned out bland. I think it needed more seasoning.

The sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste, but the chicken and rice were perfect.

I substituted brown rice for white rice and it turned out great. This dish is also a great way to use up leftover chicken.

This dish was a hit with my family! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the sauce was flavorful and slightly spicy. The rice was also delicious and cooked perfectly.
