This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices to the glaze next time.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar in the glaze next time.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the glaze was delicious. I think I will try brining the chicken next time to see if that helps.
