Easy and tasty. Had these just as an appetizer type thing and plan to use the left overs for a stir fry. Thanks for sharing. Made for ZWT.

Maybe I would have like this more if I had planned ahead enough to marinate the chicken longer. I will have to try it again. I followed other reviewer’s suggestion of making a sauce with the leftover marinade and cornstarch.

Since I was planning to reheat these in the microwave for a potluck, I followed the advice of the other reviewers and created a dipping sauce from the marinade using their directions to boil and reduced. These were a big hit and appealed to all tastes - kids and adults. Enough flavor to entice those like me who lead towards bold spice combinations yet simple enough (nor spicy) for those with simpler palates.
