Great marinade! I can only imagine this is amazing on the grill; we got rid of our old grill before we moved and have not bought a new one yet so I had to saut? the chicken on the stovetop. Was not too sweet or to bitter/sour from the lemon juice and soy sauce. Will make again when we get a grill! Made for ZWT8.

I found this in my TOH Backyard Grilling book so tried it today. I had not read the reviews here but now that I have I find it quite funny because a few people thought there wasn't enough honey and we thought there was too much making the chicken too sweet. Just goes to show you that we all have different tastes. I actually cooked my chicken in the slow cooker for about 2 hours just to get it started, then finished on the grill. All in all, a good recipe that I will make again. Thanks for posting.

This had a great texture, and the chicken was very moist and tender coming off of the grill. However, we didn't really feel that the marinade offered a lot of improvement to flavor than a simple salt and pepper and herb sprinkling would. The soy was a bit overpowering and very much dominant to the other flavors. I let this sit in the marinade for 10 hours before grilling. Made for ZWT
