Kit, I'm honored to be the first to review this great recipe! First of all, the ingredients are everyday kitchen staples. Second, the flavors blend together wonderfully. It had a subtle complexity that I thoroughly enjoyed, but not too exotic for my meat and potatoes hubby. I had to substitute vidalia for the green onion. Too make things simpler on myself, I did everything in my cast iron skillet from start to finish. I warmed the juices in the micowave to help dissolve the sugar and salt. Since the recipe didn't specify, I baked covered for the first half hour and uncovered for the last 15 minutes. I'm wondering what a splash of marsala might do. Anyway, this is by far the best baked chicken recipe I've had in a long time. You've done it again, girl. TY
