    This was just okay. I followed the recipe exactly but did scale it down for 1 chicken breast. Maybe that's why the sauce didn't carmelize. The only good thing I can say is that the diced onion smelled good while cooking.

    I made this tonight with only 4 chicken breasts and after reading many reviews decided to use minced garlic 1/8 cup of honey garlic salt and kept the onion. The "sauce" did not caramelize AT ALL. It was like juice. I even raised the temperature to 375 and then higher to 400 (I'd taken the - Read more ...

    This chicken turned out so juicy & it had a really nice sweet taste. The flavor was not really pronounced but with a bit of salt added to it you can taste the honey mingling with the butter onions & garlic powder. I would recommend this for a light meal in the evening. It's so - Read more ...

    This was very good!!! I used legs instead of boneless skinless chicken still cooked for an hour and they came out perfect! Amazing how so few ingredients can come together to make a very yummy dish. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

    This was a wonderful easy meal to cook. It was light but went perfect with our side dish...french onion soup! Thanks:)

    WOW!!!!! I make a lot of chicken and this may possibly be the best I have ever made! Very delicious although I will say it was a tad on the dry side (which I kind of assumed would be the case in looking at the cook time). I used fresh garlic rather than the powder - Read more ...

    Maybe I did something wrong...the glaze was thin and runny; the chicken was rubbery!
