I made this dish for a party and it was a huge hit! The chicken was so tender and juicy, and the sauce was the perfect balance of sweet and savory. I will definitely be making this again.

This dish was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my husband loved it. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was flavorful. I would recommend this recipe to others, but I would suggest using less sugar in the sauce.
