Do you baked covered or uncovered?
Looks delicious and way better than standing and frying!
Thanks

What I truly love about this recipe is that there's no frying and it sure tastes like it! You pour the sauce after it's done and let heat up for about 5 minutes. (I've microwaved the sauce and poured on top right before serving. I used garlic flavored duck sauce and got rave reviews.
