Honey Glazed Chicken
"When I have company I often make this recipe because, although it takes a while to cook, it's relatively easy to throw together and has a different taste from ordinary chicken."

This was delicious! I should have taken the skin off of the chicken, though. My husband said this recipe is definitely a keeper! -
OMG !! If I could, I'd rate this 1000 stars. Easy to prepare (& I'm a wuss). Made a couple changes...used 1-1/2 tsp of ground ginger because DH isn't into curry & only basted it a couple of times because TV was interesting. (told you I'm a wuss). Somethings are worth taking extra insulin over. Bless you for posting this.... DH ate every single bite! -
I found this recipe simple to make and tasted soooooo goooood!!!! I ended up just eating the chicken with nothing else. It has a flavor that I never tasted before…but will soon taste again because this recipe is a keeper. Thanks for posting it.

This was good with boneless breasts, but it required some slight modifications. After dredging them in the flour mixture, I browned them in butter in a hot skillet. Then I placed them in a baking dish and added the sauce and baked at 375 for about 25 minutes, basting occasionally . The higher temperature allowed the sauce to caramelize slightly. The chicken turned out tender and yummy. The only change I would make next time would be to decrease the amount of lemon juice and curry slightly. Otherwise, very nice dish. -
This recipe was perfect! Did not have to change a thing other than added extra honey for more sweetness (but my family loves super sweet flavors so you really don't even need to add extra). Skin was nice and crispy and the meat was really juicy. My family raved over this chicken!!!

Very good chicken, I liked the combination of the flavors. I used cooking spray on the chicken instead of butter for the first 30 minutes, the only difference I noticed is that I needed to cook it about 15 minutes longer after pouring the sauce over it, in order to get it to brown properly. I think next time I'll forgo the fewer calories and use the margarine. I'd also like to try it using ginger as another reviewer suggested, or perhaps even cinnamon just for a change, the curry powder did add great flavor and color.

Excellent recipe! I fixed this tonight exactly as the recipe reads and used it on chicken tenderloins. They licked the platter clean! I wouldn't change a thing, but might try it with ginger instead of curry just for fun. This one is a keeper and I will definitely be making it a regular. Thanks! Cathy J :)

Very easy to make however I cooked it a glass baking dish and all that honey, butter & brown sugar blackened (making quite the mess) I also used Black Pepper instead of Cayenne Pepper and 1/2 the curry pepper and my husband thought it still was too spicy so if I make it again I will cut the pepper in 1/2 too and add more honey & brown sugar.

This is a picture of me and my husband in Portugal, climbing up above the clouds with our bikes.
Right now we are travelling around the world on our bicycles, so I only pop onto Zaar occasionally, when internet connections and time allow me to. If I don't reply to a message about one of my recipes, now you know why! Our trip may take several years so if it's urgent, it's probably better for you to post in the forums ;)
Good food is really important to me -- I am happy to pay extra for food that I feel is produced in a sustainable and ethical way and always try to eat using seasonal produce.
When we were in the UK we rarely shopped at supermarkets, trying instead to favour small producers, although we were very lucky in that we lived in London and there was lots of choice.
We also were fortunate enough to have a weekly organic veg box delivered to our door, filled with so many lovely vegetables for very little money. It really opened my horizons in terms of the variety of vegetables I eat. If you're in the UK, check out Riverford for a box supplier as they're amazing!
When I'm not eating I love to take pictures and travel with my husband.
