      Hello JeanMarie,

      I was thinking about your thoughts on substituting chicken chunks for the shrimp in this recipe and I guess it would work. It would probably take a little longer to cook the chicken especially if the chunks are larger than the shrimp. I’d love to hear back if you decide to give your idea a try!

      Kindly, Lorraine
