    1. I was just looking for a simple little dish for tonight’s dinner. But this recipe blew me away: it tastes fabulous!!! And for once I actually stuck to a recipe. As I was cooking for one I did however double the marinade. I served it with fried veggies and cabbage which made for a very healthy and super tasty dinner. This is going on my “go-to” list.

    2. This was delicious but looked nothing like the picture. The marinade was thick going in the oven and came out very watery. The chicken was a nice brown color, I broiled for 6 minutes, but didn’t have that charred look to it. Next time, I may move the pan closer to the broiler, or just use a cast iron pan on the stovetop! Flavor was great, served with jasmine rice and broccoli!

      • Hi Crissy ,the reason why it came out watery is because water seeps out from the chicken and diluted the marinade. Every oven is different, I am very lucky to have a great oven that gives me an even char, but timing is everything. You need to know your oven. :)

    3. I am doubtful that ½ lbs of chicken thighs would only be 117 calories. You say that 2 lbs of thighs, with dripping, divided four ways, comes to 117 calories? 5 ounces of plain chicken breasts are 198 ounces, according to my Lose It website. And that is less than half a lb., and breasts have fewer calories than thighs. What am I missing?

      • Hi Heidi, the nutrition label is generated by a program I used and I just realized that I miscalculated by using 1 lb of chicken thighs instead of 2. The nutrition label has been updated. :)

    4. Great flavor, but I couldn’t get the chicken to brown like what is shown in the photo. Wonder what I did wrong?

      Reply

      • Hi Lisa, thanks for trying my garlic sriracha chicken. Did you broil the chicken? Do you have skin on? The brown color is also because of the dripping. Did you use the dripping on the chicken?

    5. Looks so yummy! Wanted to make this tonight but not sure if this dish would be too spicy or not. I love a kick but one of the persons eating is sensitive to spice.

    6. Greetings from Penang! Made this recipe last night. Unbelievably delicious. Will certainly be making this often. So easy too!

    7. Wondering if you made extra marinade for your photo of chicken in dish as the small amount of liquid called for in recipe, not much more than 1/4 cup couldn’t possibly fill that dish as high as it looks.

      Lovely sounding recipe though, like the ease of bringing it together and the fact I have everything on hand to make. I think I’ll follow my wonderment though and make extra marinade just in case.
      Thanks

      • Hi Joycelyn, what you see is exactly per the recipe. I didn’t use more or less. Remember when you add chicken to the marinade, the moisture of the chicken comes out too.

    8. I would like to know if you think this can be made in the crockpot. I know I would not get that nice, dark char on the outside but the flavor would still be the same.

    9. This could have been an even better recipe in my humble opinion if it had been suggested, to heat the left-over marinade to a boil, and pour on top when serving. Has a very nice taste!

    10. Thank you for this recipe it looks delicious. Iam going to purchase some Sriracha today so I can make it. What veg would you recommend to serve with it??

    11. I’m making this tonight and will let it marinate overnight. Doing separately chicken and shrimp, YUM! My prep work for next week’s lunches and dinners. Can’t wait!

    13. I made this tonight and it was delicious! I will be making it again. After broiling my chicken still did not have the dark charred look and was much lighte in color so I’m wondering if I should have pored more marinade over it before baking….

      • Hi Carmen, yes, pour all the marinate over the chicken before baking. And depending on the broil function, you might need to broil longer. Thanks for trying the garlic Sriracha chicken recipe.

    16. I will definitely be making these with some form of chicken soon! What I like most about your recipes is they always include stuff I have on hand, which is also my favorite stuff!
