Tips & Substitutions
For a deeper flavor, marinate the chicken in the Heinz 57 and honey mixture for a few hours before cooking.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use boneless chicken for this recipe?
Yes, boneless chicken works well for this recipe. Just reduce the cooking time as boneless pieces cook faster. Ensure they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) for safe consumption.
