Delicious! We really loved the spices on this chicken. The garam masala and curry work really well with the honey. I served this over various stir-fried vegetables and jasmine rice. My family devoured this and gave it 2-thumbs up. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe. *Made for AUS/NZ swap*

Fabulous! Used chicken breasts - honey and sesame seeds are a winner in itself - add that wonderful spice mixture and wow. The Asian Stir - Fried Vegetables make for great pairing. Made as posted and already looking to a rerun.
