This had very little flavor. We changed the cooking method to grilling. I served this with CL's Barley and Mushroom Casserole which was also a major disappointment. Very unsual that we hit a dud, and we got two in one night.
Hoisin-Glazed Chicken Breasts
Adding the remaining glaze on the chicken after broiling intensifies the flavor. Be sure to use a clean spoon or brush when adding the final amount of hoisin mixture. You don't want it to come in contact with any utensils that touched raw chicken.
Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 breast half and 1 lime wedge)
