Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: Many enjoyed the smoky taste, though some found it overpowering. Adding salsa on top enhanced the flavour for some.
  • Ease of prep: Extremely quick and straightforward to prepare, with minimal hands-on time required. Even novice cooks found the instructions easy to follow.
  • Suggestions: Consider cutting the diced chicken into smaller pieces. Try adding mushrooms to bulk out the dish for a heartier meal.
  • Portions: Some felt there wasn't enough chicken included, while others found the servings quite large.
