The chicken was a bit tough, but the glaze was delicious. I'll try marinating the chicken overnight next time.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I'll try reducing the amount of honey next time.

I didn't have any tequila, so I used rum instead. It turned out great!

I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs and they cooked perfectly in about 20 minutes. The glaze was easy to make and added a delicious flavor to the chicken.
