Very tasty! I'm not real fond of meat cooked in the microwave, but I liked the recipe ingredients, so I baked them in the oven. The sauce adhered nicely to the chicken pieces.

    Very good, thank-you, my husband thought it was what he calls "sneaky hot",he enjoyed it and wants it again. My mouth is still tingley. Used skinless, legs. The only problem I had was after the first 6 minutes I took the chicken out to turn it over and the sauce had heavily congealed, so I spooned it into a cup and poured 3 or 4 more tablespoons of sherry in and whisked it up, put the chicken back in and poured the thinned sauce over it. When it was done, (8 minutes) the sauce had thickened again and coated the chicken nicely, without adding any more cornstarch. It will be a repeat. Looking forward to cold left overs. Dorothy

    I made this last night for dinner and everyone loved it. I did add a little extra sherry after reading the other reviews and it was perfect. It doesn't get any easier than this. I also only used 1/4 tsp. of cayenne, we are whimps. I will be making this again thanks for such an easy dinner idea.

    Thanks, Tebo, for a great recipe. The store I use was having a sale on skinless chicken thighs and we purchased 5 lbs, so used the oven. Rolled the thighs in the soy mixture, then baked for 15 minutes @ 375*F, then turned over and used the rest of the soy mixture and baked another 15 minutes. Loved the crispiness the oven gave it. Will definitely use again, maybe the next time in the microwave.

    Wonderful, thanks. Took derf's suggestion for adding more sherry. Added a layer of thinly sliced yellow bell pepper for the last 6 minutes, which complemented the rest of the recipe, and added a vegetable component. For the next time, I'll probably add some raisins as well. Yum.

    A very tasty, easy to make meal using common ingredients to be found in the pantry. How much easier could one want. And the microwave doesn't heat up the house. My sauce was congealed, too, at the 6 minute mark, but a little more wine and a quick mixing made things right. I found I was out of cayenne pepper, so the same amount of chili powder worked. Thanks for posting such a keeper, Tebo. jim

    Fast, Easy and Great Tasting. I have two teenage boys and thier friends to feed so I doubled the recipe, hoping to have some leftovers for the next day at work...didn't happen, took about 5 minutes and it was all gone!

    The garlic popped wi ththis dish. And to prepare it all in one dish and only use the microwave. Those are all of our family flavors. I did skin the thighs. Cut the fat dowm. bone side up for part of the cooking, then turn over and sprinkled with cayanne, Perfic. Paprika makes the color nice and finishes it off.(secret)we salt&pepper the skins an fry them crisp, no oil nessary, addsome garlic powder. very tasty and crunchy for a side. The meal is great with white rice and broccoli..Very good

    I didn't have high expectations for a microwave recipe but this was SO delicious, there were no leftovers whatsoever, and it was SO easy! I only did this recipe because i was looking for one using ingredients I had on hand. To my surprise it turned out really good! If you are in a pinch for time TRY THIS! & it is great with white rice and broccoli!

    very easy to make! at the first 6 mins,it congealed, but I ignored it. Then continued with the next 6 mins, and voila, the sauce didn't congeal anymore! Didn't put the cayenne pepper btw. I just heated it another extra 6 mins, just to be sure though I think the mins you gave was fine as it is. Thanks!
