  1. this is a lovely, easy recipe. Made as written, maybe cooked a little longer, and the chicken was moist and tender, the sauce complimenting it wonderfully.<br/>Made for Aussie swap July 2010
     
  2. When I made this the other day I did cut it in half & that was enough for 2 of us plus a bit left over to take to work in a rice salad the next day! We very much enjoyed the flavors in this chicken dish, & I'll definitely be keeping the recipe around! The only simple change I made was to use lemon pepper in place of the usual S&P! I think what really made this a hit for us was the use of the fresh basil & a dark & flavorful wild flower honey! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Made & reviewed while touring with ZWT6]
     
  3. I followed the recipe exactly and wanted dissapointed in the amount of flavor. I was expected something a little more bold. A little garlic salt on the finished product helped a great deal, but I think I might work in a bit more spice in the original recipe if I made it again.
     
  4. This wasn't my favorite dish. I thought that it smelled worse than it tasted. My husband thought it smelled wonderful though. We liked the chicken but we didn't like the sauce enough to eat it with rice.
     
  5. Excellent recipe. My kids and I are experimenting with different world cuisines and decided to try this. Everyone loved it! I made a couple of small changes but kept to the recipe pretty closely - I chopped the chicken into bite sized pieces before cooking and substituted 1/2 tsp. dried basil (dried from the gardent this summer) for the fresh. We served it over couscous and with honey glazed baby carrots. Very, very good!
