    I added a little bit of honey to the sauce for extra sweetness, and it was delicious! I also used chicken thighs instead of breasts, and it was still great.

  • Emilia Metz

    I was skeptical about the lack of marinating time, but the chicken turned out fantastic! My family loved it, and it's definitely going into our regular rotation.

    This recipe is amazing! So much better than takeout, and it's ready in under 30 minutes. The chicken was incredibly tender, and the sauce was perfectly balanced.
