Despite its name, this chicken is not too sweet. The olive oil, soy sauce, garlic and pepper temper the honey perfectly.

    Hi Susie, you don’t HAVE to use anything :-) should be ok if you omit it. Try it and let us know.

    Hi! Can I use garlic paste instead of garlic powder? Thank you :)

  7. avatar Jamie Geller says:

    Hi Anora – the garlic here teally just lends a very subtle layer of flavor so that this dish is not overly or annoyingly sweet – so yes the paste would work – just add according to taste

    Yum! saw this recipe in your cookbook at my sister’s house and made this chicken for her. I prepared the chicken and then put it in the freezer, covered. Then took it out of the oven 2 days later and baked it. Came out really really good, and tasted a little Chinese. Thanks for this awesome and easy recipe!

    The recipe looks wonderful. I am thinking of making it for Rosh Hashanah dinner. Do you think I can use boneless chicken breasts and pieces without the skin? Nobody eats the skin so I hate to marinate it and then throw it out with all the flavor.

    This chicken was delicious! With Friday nights getting earlier, I will be having more company and this is a perfect saucy chicken to make. Very easy too.
