These were so good and quite easy to make. I served at my Bunko party and they were a big hit.

I thought this was very nice... I used turkey instead of chicken, and added a tiny pinch of chili, ginger, and also a touch of lemon juice.. dried onion would have been nice too, i think..
Lovely! Glad to have found this recipe, simple easy and tasty

This is a really delicious dish and relatively easy to make. I made my dipping sauce from blending Hawaiian Kukui Coconut Pancake Syrup with Apricot-Pineapple preserves. VERY tasty. ***ONE WORD OF WARNING: I followed the recipe to the letter, but found that my electric oven at 400 degrees began to burn (not toast) the coconut within three minutes...I reduced the heat to 325 and cooked for the remaining time called for in the recipe...the chicken turned out juicy and the crust was delicious. My version of dipping sauce may not be to everyone's taste, but if you like a combo of sweet and tangy, then I would highly recommend it.

I loved this and so did my kids! For a dipping sauce I used 1/4 peach preserves, 1/3 cup honey and 3 T dijon mustard. You can use marmalade too but I had peach on hand. Absolutely amazing!
