Thai Chicken

I enjoy how so many different pre-made saucescome with recipes for interesting dinners, and since I had some Diana Honey Garlic sauce in the house, I thought I would try one of hers.

One of the things that I enjoyed about living in Guangzhou was all of the different types of food we could get. I enjoy Thai food but have tried making vary little myself, so I thought I would give this a try. I changed up most of the veggies simply because I had zucchini and baby potatoes already in the house that needed to be used. And again I used Tabasco as my hot sauce. I also cut the recipe into thirds as there was only the two of us eating, and didnt need to have 6 pieces of chicken!

Overall this was easy to make and tasted really good! The sauce gave the chicken a really nice flavour, and it was even yummier on the veggies.  The chicken was tender and the potatoes helped to make this a nicely filling meal. The only downside was that I needed to use a frying pan (as I dont have a grill) and the sauce made a bit of a mess that took some soaking to clean afterwards, but the whole meal was definitely worth it! My husband enjoyed it, but as he is not a huge fan of peanut sauce, I probably wouldnt make it again if he was eating with me. However for myself or for guests, this is a definite yes!
