I did char siew chicken countless times. Everyone favourite in my family. Served the char siew chicken with noodles or rice. Cooked extra pieces and eat with bread/buns for breakfast. A very good recipe to keep! Thanks Wei.

In reply to Rita Zelig. Very happy to learn that skinless, boneless chicken thighs worked just as well! Yes, it's a pity that my website doesn't offer a photo comment option. But I can imagine how delicious your char siu chicken looked.

I made this dish using boneless, skinless thighs. It works equally well & surprisingly, NEVER DRIED OUT THE CHICKEN! It remained very moist & flavourful & it went extremely quickly! Totally enjoyed by everyone who tasted it! I made plain fried rice to serve it with. A total recipe hit & this recipe is now one of my “go to” hit sensations! Thank you for creating & sharing such wonderful recipes! I don’t have Instagram…nor do I want it! I wish you had a way for me to share my photo of this dish alongside my comment!

Hi Wei,
The chicken recipe was delicious!! But I made a few changes. I put aside some of the marinade in a small bowl to mix with the honey. The rest of the marinade I used on the raw chicken (I was a little uncomfortable to use the marinade mixed with RAW chicken to brush on when baking). And also, baked the chicken for 15 mins in the beginning, then flipped, brushed the chicken with honey marinade and baked for another 15 mins. Flipped chicken again, brushed marinade and then broiled the skin. The chicken turned out tender.

My husband said it was delicious.

Thank you.
