Wasn't bad at all. I didn't have any guacamole made up, so I omitted that. I did have sour cream, however. Only change I made was that I added 1 tsp. chipotle powder to the marinade for a little extra kick. I also didn't need the cornstarch/water mixture, it cooked down enough on it's own.

sounds so good and easy! after reading comments I'm wondering if the marinade would be just as good, not too sweet, if the amount of honey was cut by half...? this recipe is almost too easy not to try it!!
