This is my new favorite chicken recipe! The chicken is so moist and tender, and the glaze is perfectly sweet and tangy. I love the addition of pecans, which add a nice crunch and nutty flavor. I will definitely be making this again and again.

This recipe was a disappointment. The chicken was dry and the glaze was too sweet. I would not recommend this recipe.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The chicken was cooked well, but the glaze lacked flavor. I would recommend adding more spices and herbs to the marinade.

This dish was a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved it. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the glaze was very flavorful. I would recommend using less sugar in the glaze next time.
