I triple this recipe when chicken is on sale, freeze it with the marinade in resealable bags. The night before I need it, I place a bag in the refrigerator and the chicken marinates as it thaws.-Anne Wegener, Springville, Indiana

I thought this recipe was just okay. The chicken was a bit dry and the sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste.

Not a fan. The chicken was tough and the sauce was bland.
