We needed a new chicken recipe - this one came to me in an e-mail from Smithfield, and the boys and I really enjoyed the sweet/spicy flavor.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The sauce is just the right amount of spicy and the chicken is cooked perfectly.

This recipe was a disaster! The chicken was tough and the sauce was bland. I don't know what went wrong.

The chicken was crispy and the sauce was flavorful, but the recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll try a simpler recipe next time.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I'll probably try making it again with less chili sauce next time.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the sauce was delicious. I think next time I'll try using chicken thighs instead of breasts.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The chicken is always crispy and the sauce is delicious. I like to serve it with rice and a side of vegetables.

The sauce is the star of this dish. It's got just the right amount of heat and sweetness. I used chicken thighs instead of breasts and they were so juicy and flavorful.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out amazing! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and they cooked perfectly in the sauce. I would definitely make this again.

Absolutely delicious! The firecracker sauce was the perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and savory. The chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. I served it over rice with a side of steamed broccoli and it was a hit with my family.
