This was a good "starter" recipe. I have made this and the Kelloggs recipe and i prefer this. I would have rated it 5 stars but i did a lot of extras. I used 1/4 cup milk and 1/3 cup of honey, salt n peppered the flour as well as the chicken itself. I also used chicken tenderloins instead of breasts and crushed the cornflakes. After 20 minutes of cooking i turned the chicken over and drizzled it with honey. After 5 minutes i turned the oven off and let it sit in the oven for another 5 or so minutes while i finished the side dishes. When i took it out of the oven i flipped the chicken back over and lightly drizzled the other side with honey. My family likes it really sweet and they loved this dish! At the end, the chicken was crunchy and nothing was soggy at all :D

I really didn't care for this recipe at all...I added some garlic powder and it was edible, but I don't think I will make this or any version of this again

Let's start with the obvious: if you want PF Chang's honey chicken, it has to be fried. This is a healthy alternative that has a similar flavor. I crushed the corn flakes and used more honey than the recipe called for. The key to keeping it crunchy is to cut the chicken into 1 1/2" cubes (like chicken nuggets) and then coating it in flour, honey and corn flakes. I put it on a bed of white rice, and it was delicious!

I used frosted flakes since I didn't have honey, but had frosted flakes. The coating did work well, stayed coated,was crunchy and chicken was moist. I also crushed with by hand to make the flakes smaller. The sweetness didn't pare well with the chicken. It tasted like sweet chicken. It might be better with marinating the chicken first.

Extremely simplistic recipe... Few ingredients doesn't have to mean mediocre-tasting. Cornflakes (I used Total flakes) didn't so much get soggy as chewy. I didn't have a problem with the sweetness, as many other people seem to have, but overall the dish is only okay. Edible, and some bites were even enjoyable. Requires very little effort, but it shows in the product.

Wonderful! Loved the honey mixture and I'm not even a honey fan (it's just a hint of flavor) Only change - I used crushed (as per other reviews) Special K flakes instead of corn flakes. Will definitely make again!

This was a great recipe for my 3 picky boys. The ingredients are those I generally have on hand. I followed some of the advice of other reviews; crushing the corn flakes, adding orange juice concentrate to the honey, halving the honey, adding salt, pepper, paprika and garlic powder to the honey. It wasn't soggy. It was moist. The boys liked it. Slightly bland and boring for me, but that's what I was looking for. I like the idea someone else had of melting swiss cheese on top.
