Wonderful chicken! I cut it way down for 1 big chicken breast and cooked it in the oven. Lovely taste. I also used garlic powder instead of the cloves. Made for Everyday Cooking Tag Game 2014. -
What a yummy way to cook chicken...I cut the recipe in half and cooked them on my George Foreman grill...came out perfect...loved the sticky sweet taste and the touch of spiciness...next time I think I will increase the chili paste...only because we enjoy the extra heat...hubby who doesn't really care for chicken gave this one a big thumbs up...thanks for posting it...=) -
I have to admit that I just did not want to dig through the freezer to find chicken, so I grabbed the tilapia fillets. I only made two, so reduced the ingredients, and only let it marinate for about 30 minutes - fish will turn mushy, especially if there is anything acidic in the marinade. I pan grilled the fillets, and they turned out just wonderful. I used a Korean chili paste which was very flavorful and worked well with the other ingredients. Very nice with rice and veggie. -
This was a delicious, simple take on chicken, which can become humdrum. It's nice to try different takes on yummy ingredients too! I followed the recipe as directed, though I did reduce, to only make 2 breasts, and they were moist and juicy. Thanks so much for sharing, weekend cooker.

Made this to take to over for a neighbor to grill for 4 of us! Used four 8-ounce breasts & then followed the ingredient list down for the rest of the recipe! Absolutely great tasting chicken! Everyone loved the wonderful flavor & a copy of the recipe is now being cherished by my neighbors! It's a keeper for us, too! Thanks for sharing it! [Made & reviewed in 1-2-3 Hits recipe tag]
