Thanks! I haven’t tried it that way, but I think either approach could work. If you want to marinate and grill, I’d definitely set some sauce aside first so you’ve got a clean portion to brush on afterward. Or just grill the chicken with the five-spice and pour the sauce over when it’s done—that might be the simplest way to go. Let me know how it turns out if you try it.

Looks great, question- can I use this as a marinade and then grill the chicken? Maybe keep some of the sauce separate to put on chicken after?
OR.. grill with 5 spice then add sauce after cooked? Thanks!

Found your website after a desperate google search for “What should I make for supper?” and picked this recipe out of the 80 you had listed. Oh WOW so glad I did! Delicious and simple and the family gave it rave reviews! (even the pickier kid who said “Oh man, we just had chicken LAST WEEK” when I told him what I was making lol) Everyone had seconds and it was all we could do not to lick our plates clean. Thank you for this!!

Wow, thank you so much for this. All three boys and my husband were completely silent as they happy ate and savoured their dinner. It was quick and easy. I did mine with chicken breast and served with vegetable noodles. I think Duck would also be very good with this sauce. I will now forever have these ingredients in my cupboard. A*

Eight thumbs up. This may very well go into regular rotation.

I made this and it was so good and easy, but we had leftovers (only two of us and we probably could’ve eaten the whole batch!) so the next night I reheated the chicken and made tacos. I just lightly fried corn tortillas and topped the chicken with a cabbage slaw dressed with rice wine vinegar and soy sauce. They were awesome! I’m definitely making extra whenever I make your delicious 1-2-3 chicken. Thank you!

Yum! Made this today with what I had on hand–blackberry fruit spread. Also, I didn’t have the spice, so I just used cinnamon, cloves, red pepper flakes and anise extract. Still super easy and excellent!
