This was good and I will make it again. I did double the curry spice and am glad I did as it may have been a bit bland for our tastes otherwise. I also used about half the onion powder and then added fresh onions which went lovely with the sauce. In the future I will add fresh garlic as well as I always try to use fresh instead of powders. I served this with recipe #73708 and recipe #196658 and it was a tasty meal. My boyfriend loved this dinner (which I made for Easter Sunday). Thanks for posting! -
Fabulous. I didn't have onion powder so I used some jarred garlic. Doubled the sauce recipe using 3/4 c honey and 1 tsp curry powder. I didn't read my directions well and dumped all the sauce over the tenders before putting the oven and it turned out perfectly. DH suggested using the sauce on wings. Yummmmm..... -
We really enjoyed this for dinner last night. I only have one complaint: I should have doubled the sauce - it was so, so yummy! I will make this dish often. I also like that the dish is light.

Cooking instructions were spot on, had to give the largest breast an extra two minutes. Like many others, I also doubled the curry powder but still the honey was overpowering. The consistency of the sauce was excellent but it was very sweet for my taste. If I were to make it again I would try to find something to replace some of the honey, or add some more spices to combat that.

I really liked this. The sauce is delicious, and the chicken came out and moist and perfect. I also did double the curry powder, and am glad I did as the spices were just right. Thanks for sharing!

I live in the San Francisco area and love it here. I discovered Recipezaar (then Food.com..Genius Kitchen) in 2001 and have been so happy to have my favorite recipes stored safely here. I am mother to 7 and grandmother to 7.
I love to knit, smock, sew, etc., but my favorite hobby of the moment is traditional rug hooking. This is a sample of what I do.? It's called "November".? I dyed most of the wool myself. It is made from wool flannel, cut into strips a little less than 1/4" and then worked into a linen backing. This is my 3rd rug.
