I searched the recipe so I could make this again and could not believe the poor reviews that I read. So I decided to write my own. This meal is excellent, safe, and simple to prepare. My 2 and 5 year old love it. I recommend using fresh ginger and pineapple, as well as dark corn syrup. And make a pot of rice. And I agree with a previous reviewer, a pot of rice compliments the chicken really well.

It was good but not spectacular. Didn't really taste like I thought that it was going too.

This is one of the best meals I've had in quite some time! Absolutely DIVINE! I did have to modify the recipe a little bit though. I didnt have any ginger or soy sauce or lemon juice, so I omitted all those things. I took only 3 chicken Drumsticks and put them into a glass baking dish. I added 1/8 cup vegtable oil, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 - 8 oz can of unsweetened crushed pinneapple (without draining). Since I didnt have the ginger or the soy sauce or the lemon juice, I sprinkled the chicken with 2 tablespoons MS Dash Butter Flavored seasoning. I made mashed potatoes with real butter and a steamed veggie mix for side dishes and I was in heaven after this cooked.

We really enjoyed this one! I used thighs instead of legs and put in green peppers and big chunks of red onion. The sauce was a bit watery but will try to put in some cornstarch next time. Thighs were really tender and will use them again next time- will definately make it again. Even my picky eaters ate up every bite! Very yummy!!!

What a dissappointment it was sitting down to eat this thing at dinner. Tasteless. It lacked flavour and taste. Bland. After having read the other two reviews, I had decided to alter it. I added 2 cloves of fresh garlic, doubled the soya and ginger and corn syrup but it did not do much. I think it would be better with sweetened canned pineapple bits (I had used the unsweetened pineaplle)and half of its juice and instead of cornsyrup, brown sugar making it a better possibility of it caramelizing. Good Luck to you brave ones that will try it out.

I didn't care for this either. I used ground ginger and it didn't make any difference. My leg quarters were still a bit frozen, so it took longer to cook, but it had too much liquid and didn't carmelize at all.

Didn’t really like this. It was an unusual flavour and the chicken didn’t caramelize like I thought it would. I used fresh ginger instead of powder so that may have made a difference.
