Honey Curry Chicken

While looking through various blogs and websites I came across a recipe for Curry Honey Chicken which looked really good.  It looked like a perfect meal for a week night dinner so I added it to the schedule for the week.

After mixing together the ingredients for the sauce I decided to make a couple of changes which actually in my mind changed the recipe from a Curry Honey Chicken to  Honey Curry Chicken, let me explain… 

Originally there was much less honey in the recipe and I found that it had a very strong soy sauce taste and was lacking in the sweetness of honey that I was expecting.  The original recipe was good but I wanted to take it a different way and make it more of a sweet chicken recipe.  So the recipe went from 1 tablespoon of honey to 1/4 cup or so, to be honest I was just adding honey until it was the right amount of sweet. 

The end result was really good, just the right amount of sweet with the honey being the star of the show.
