    That sounds good. I'm wondering if it would make a difference to cook the chicken for a few hours and drain out all the juice before adding the sauce ingredients. That's what I did with the orange chicken recipe (orange marmalade, bbq sauce and soy sauce). I was amazed at the quantity of juice that I drained off, resulting in a sauce that was thicker. That liquid probably contained fat that I didn't need as well.

    I might try this. Sounds similar to a glaze I make with mustard and crushed pineapple to baste on grilled chicken.

    Sounds delicious, seems super easy. I'll probably leave out the brown sugar if I make it.
