I love that this recipe is so cost-effective and delicious! I just used what I had on hand and it worked great. It tastes great even without the wine or special vinegar. I just used plain vinegar and my husband and I loved it.

Satisfying and tasty. Like others, I added a few carrots and a handful of mushrooms. I used sweet red wine instead of mirin, because I didn't have any. Nearly all my kids had seconds, although i found myself wishing it was a bit more flavorful. I'd add some spices next time.

I thought this had a pretty funky taste. I followed the recipe exactly too. Sorry!

I thought it was bland and lacked any distinctive flavor. I was confused about adding the pineapple with or without the juice. I added the juice with the pineapple and perhaps that is what watered down the sauce. Another reviewer said she was also confused and did not add the juice, but we both came to the same conclusion, not enough flavor. Not sure what I did wrong, but would be willing to try again if the instructions were clear on the pineapple juice.

This was delicious! So good that my picky hubby went back for seconds and we were fighting over the leftovers for lunch the next day! Used the honey idea since I had no mirin. Added red wine and red wine vinegar instead of the mirin and white wine vinegar. Also to the sauce, I added some red pepper flakes for a little bit of spice. Also used frozen pineapple chunks (no juice) and doubled the other sauce to make up for the lack of juice. Added broccoli and onions to the veggies. All in all it came out perfect. The veggies weren't overcooked using this method and the chicken was very tender.

Didn't like it. And on top of that the directions were not very good- for example do you drain the pineapple or not? I did but then the other flavors over powered the pineapple and you couldn't really taste it.

I have been making this recipe for years. One of my family's favorites from the site! I have never had the mirin to make it. I usually throw in some wine and a little brown sugar. LOVE it. I make twice the amount of sauce because its delicious over the rice. I always serve with rice pilaf.

Very nice, quick and easy. I added mushrooms and broccoli. Next time I'll probably add some chilies as well to give it a bit of a kick. Will definitely make this again.
