I know this is an old recipe, but I did a little modification that really improved it in my opnion. First off, this is a really good recipe. I was craving something sticky or crunchy and when I read the other reviews I decided to modify this one a bit. I breaded the chicken tenderloins with Panko and placed them on a greased baking sheet. I put about half of the sauce on the top of each tenderloin and convection baked for 10 minutes. Then I flipped each tenderloin and poured the remaining sauce on each one and baked for the remaining 10 minutes. They came out great! Both crunchy and sticky. The Panko absorved a lot of the flavor so some parts were strong. A little salty for our tastes. I think next time I will just leave out the salt. Served with white rice.

We enjoyed this very much! Made as directed. It wasn't really what I would call sticky but good, none the less. Had with steamed rice and veggies on the side. Served with a little soy sauce on top of all. It was a tasty meal. I think I might try it as an appetizer with wings and little drumsticks for our next football party. Thanks Beth!

I am a mother of two wonderful boys! We live in a small rural community in Indiana that we love. I love cooking, especially entertaining for family and friends. I collect cookbooks and found RecipeZaar by accident online looking for recipes. I was hooked immediately! I tell all of my family and friends about this awesome site. I cannot understand picky eaters or those who won't try something new??? My husband and I enjoy cooking together and trying new recipes.
