I have a huge stack of recipes I’ve pulled from online and out of magazines that I try when I have the time. The problem comes in when I tell my hubby what I plan on making for the week and bless his heart he likes to help and usually suggest other methods of cooking which sometimes works and sometimes doesn’t. This is one of those dishes where he grilled the chicken which gave it a nice grilled taste, but you couldn’t taste the sauce at all. I would recommend following the directions and baking them instead of doing them on the grill like we did.
