Pretty dry. The marinade doesn't make enough glaze. Not a lot of flavor at all. Wouldn't make again.
It's too bad that the reviewer from May 30 didn't read the recipe before he bragged about how he made the dish good. first don't complain if you don't follow it. Second. One of the first things this recipe says is that the marinade is used as a sauce also. Make it written. It is lovely just the way it is. The recipe is FAR from awful. I'm making it again tonight!
0 Flavor I've cooked this recipe twice the first as instructed and the second with my own twist on things. The first time had absoutely no flavor whatsoever. You can't even taste the lime! I don't know about you but I don't have a lot of time to wait for flavorless chicken to marinate. The second time I made it was for a large dinner party. I made about twice the amount of sauce and instead of this useless refrigeration and grilling I cooked the chicken and added the sauce on top. All of the guests absoutely loved it and begged me for the recipe! I'm usually all for following the recipe but this recipe is awful. If you want more flavor I suggest grilling the chicken AND then adding the sauce. Pros: none that I can think of Cons: Takes way too long to prepare flavorless useless steps
Used boneless skinless chicken breast this recipe was great! Used boneless skinless chicken breast and grilled them.
Flavorful and easy I marinated three large chicken breasts in this marinade for six hours - I generally prefer to marinate my proteins 12 to 24 hours instead of the prescribed 2 on these recipes. I grilled them on my stove top using my le creuset grill pan (coated with olive oil spray) I served it with jasmine rice and steamed vegetables and my wife raved. We'll definitely make this again. I'm not sure where they got the sodium amount on this recipe. I used 6 T of reduced sodium Kikkoman soy sauce as called for. The label on my soy sauce says a single tablespoon has 575mg of sodium which is way way more than what this recipe lists. Pros: full flavor profile can adapt to stovetop cooking Cons: Sodium % in nutritional info way off
I live in China and have not bought a grill yet so I roasted the chicken in the oven. I also cannot buy chcken breast on the bone nor chicken thighs alone so I bought chicken legs and cut apart the thighs and drumsticks and used those. Nevertheless the recipe turned out grat. Everyone loved this dish and it is a "keeper" in my family now. Laura
I live in China and have not bought a grill yet so I roasted the chicken pieces in the oven. I also cannot buy chicken breasts with the bone or chicken thighs alone so I had to buy whole legs cut the thigh and drumstick apart and use those. Nevertheless this recipe was fantastic. Everyone loved it - my American family and my Chinese in-laws.
I live in China too and have the same problem! I cooked it the same way and everyone loves it - including my Chinese in-laws who live with us. It is a mystery to me why we can buy the whole chicken leg and the drumstick alone but not the thigh. Laura Tang
I just grilled marinated chicken breast and put the sauce on last. It was great with roasted veggies.:)
It looks great but I didnt like it. Thought it tasted really gross:/ not impressed.
This dish was very tasty I however put it in a pan to cook rather then on the grill with the sauce and a little water. Really allowed the sauce to soak in. Will be making again.
