When I first left home I shared a flat with a chinese girl and this is one of the ways she would cook chicken. The marinade is sticky and yummy and smells wonderful.

Too sweet for my tastes. Next time I would add some salt.

    This was really good! I actually used the chicken from soup, after it had been boiling for 45 min, but it into pieces and placed it in a roaster. I basted every 10 min for 30 min and it turned out really juicy and tasty. Thanks a lot!

    I tried this with chicken breast and turned the heat up to 425° after the first ten minutes. Because I tried to rush things, the marinade never had time to get sticky, so don't do what I did.

    Excellent marinade for chicken. I used 2 garlic cloves and 1 tsp of sesame oil, just right for your tastes. It cooked up beautifully in the time posted. I did use the broiler for the last few minutes. I served this with steamed rice and pea pods. I will be making this quick and simple recipe again and soon. Thanks for sharing this recipe.
