  1. roko88 REVIEW:

    Followed the recipe exactly as written and it turned out very good. I thought it might be too sweet with the sugar in it but the salty soy sauce countered it.

  2. hammelcarr REVIEW:

    Very tasty, indeed, and I also, added ginger. The only fault is following exactly the recipe gave exactly the perfect glaze for the chicken, but no juice left for the rice.

  3. shesamosergirl REVIEW:

    We found this to be a terrific recipe. Quick, simple and tasty!

  4. madena REVIEW:

    This was very easy and delicious...I think the only thing I'll change in the future is add some grated ginger root.

  5. Guest Foodie REVIEW:

    WOW! What a flavorful dish, I used scallions instead of chives-it was all I had,I also added ginger-and it was delicious. Tastes like I went to a restaurant! Thanks :)

  6. Marie REVIEW:

    This was wonderfully tasty and wonderfully easy! I was pleasantly surprised at how good the sauce tasted. Served over rice this is a great simple meal.

  7. Lynne REVIEW:

    Della, This is a wonderful recipe. Thank you! Everyone loved it. I made it just the way you had it (was about 1 1/2 lbs. chicken tenders) My kids love the flavor of green onions, so I left them in. And it was so quick and easy...I was really pleased, and will be making this often ... thanks again!

  8. audreykey REVIEW:

    First of all, I thought the directions were a little vague. My 4 breasts of chicken weighed over 2 pounds. I think the recipe is good for about 1 pound of sugar. I made this with a kid's cooking class and everyone loved it. Somehow with I copied and pasted the recipe into word I lost the sugar from the ingredient list, so I guessed. We used one 1/8 cup sugar with the 1/4 cup of soy sauce. I didn't use the chives, but I did add 1/8 tsp of garlic powder to the recipe and we really enjoyed it. Audrey
