Wow....this is some fantastic stuff!!! MY hubby, the "cook," was ready to call people and brag on me for creating this wonderful chicken. I used about 8 tenders, and I had to adjust the recipe slightly. I used cider vinegar instead of white, 1 1/2 tbs. of minced onion instead of green onion, 3 tbs. of brown sugar instead of the honey, and I didn't use the ginger. Also, I only marinated for about 2 hrs. Let me tell you....this was sooooo yummy! I broiled in the oven and flipped them every few minutes at first, and then as they started to really caramelize I flipped every 1 1/2 minutes....about 9 minutes total. Moist and flavorful!!! Not at all salty...but, I suspect if you marinated for a long time...maybe that's when the soy would become overpowering. We can't say enough about this marinade....next is chicken legs!

Used this marinade on our first big cookout of the year. Everyone couldn't get enough chicken - it was so moist and flavorful. I may use low sodium soy next time.

This recipe was awesome. I used dehydrated onion instead of the green onion and it was just as good.

I've used this on chicken and beef. It's always a big hit - I've gotten requests for the recipe more than once.

I followed as directed....omitting the ginger. I marinated boneless chicken breasts all day and then grilled on the Foreman. They were great, very moist with good flavor. My teen raved about how good they were! Thanks!

I made this exactly as written, minus the ginger. Marinated about a day and the chicken was moist with good flavor.

I thought this was excellent. I marinated both turkey and beef (a fairly cheap cut) in it for about 6 hours. Then we put them on skewers and grilled them on the BBQ. Our guests raved about them. I had leftover raw meat that I left in the marinade overnight and then cooked that meat in a skillet. The meat was very tender and the flavor was still really good if not better than the night before.

Tried this with pork and beef over the weekend with our new grill, and it was not nearly as good. I'm going to stick with just using it for chicken in the future. This was excellent! I used it for chicken and also marinated some zuchini and yellow squash sliced thin. We grilled it all up after marinating for two hours. My entire family ate everything. No leftovers. I did use 1 1/2 teaspoons of onion powder in place of the green onions. Other than that I followed the recipe. I will definitely use this again.

This is an awesome marinade! Everyone ranted and raved about the flavor. I marinaded chicken breasts for kabobs for 24 hours. They were so tender and moist after cooking. I did however add some garlic pepper and extra honey. Thanks for the wonderful addition to the recipe book.

Wonderful marinade! I used it for steak. Didn't have any green onions, so I used about 1.5 tsp of onion powder. I marinated for about 5 hours, then rinsed off the meat before broiling. (I've been burned with overpowering marinades before.) It was great - slightly sweet and tangy, not too soyish for me. I wanted to lick the plate when I was finished! Definitely a keeper.

We really enjoyed this marinade. I only had time to marinate the chicken breasts (pounded) in it for 2 or 3 hours, but the flavor still penetrated well. I'll use this recipe again for sure.

While I really enjoyed this marinade (I used it on chicken), The Boy did not. I mentioned before that he's picky though. I'll be using this recipe again though ~ he can have canned soup. Thanks Jana!

This recipe is easy to prepare. I also like the fact that the ingredients are readily available. When I looked at the set of ingredients, though, I thought that it can still be improved. Instead of using vegetable oil, I used olive oil because it has better aroma and it leaves a hint of flavor in ur dishes (rather than vegetable oil which can be bland for some people). Likewise, I also increased the amount of honey in the recipe (or sugar). I also used regular onions instead of green onions because the flavor or the onion bulb is stronger. Feel free to add dried herbs and spices to taste. Squeeze in lemon juice. Marinade it for 3 days before grilling, or broiling, or baking.

My sweetie really liked the recipe. I used what I had on hand, apple cider vinegar instead of distilled white, and extra garlic, but we always use a lot of garlic. The boneless chicken breasts grilled up moist and tasty. Sweet and saucy.

Used this for lunch today. Worked out wonderfully. I agree with some other reviewers that the soy sauce was a bit strong. I will use again with some tinkering. Thank you for the post.
