My husband made this for us last week. I had emailed him the recipe, and he decided to surprise me with it. We were both pleasantly surprised with how delicious it was. We will definitely be making it a gain, and my husband suggested we try the pineapple glaze on white fish, which we eat about once a week. I highly recommend this recipe, it's delicious and so easy, at least that's wnat my husband, our resident chef said!

This was excellent! I will make again but will add a dash of ground red pepper to the finish sauce. I will also try this sauce with a pork tenderloin.

WOW! I loved this recipe! I trippled it because I have a big family and it was gone. The only thing I changed was I added 3 tbsp of honey to the mix because to me it was to sour with the mustard and pineapple and the honey made it stick to the meat so well and made it sweet and savory!.The chicken was so tender it was amazing. I even used it on vegan "chicken" breasts for my veggie daughter and it was lovely. Yes I will make it again for sure but do try the honey if you make it, its great.
