How to make Sticky Honey and Lime Chicken
Simply bake your favorite chicken parts. (why do I think thats so funny?).   While the chicken is baking, make your super easy, sticky saucy stuff.  Toss cooked chicken with sauce, serve and watch your family drool….not swoon…cause I don’t say swoon…. I don’t say adorbs either.  The other day a gal left the nicest note on my blog that said ‘ this recipe is perf.”.  If it’s such a great recipe isn’t it worth the added effort of the ‘ect’?
If you don’t have an electric rice cooker, I got a great tip for ya guys.    Did you know you can oven bake rice?  It’s  so easy and you will never go back to watching the pot, and you will never have mushy rice again either.  It comes out perf every time!   Here is the recipe: How to Oven Bake Quinoa, White and Brown Rice.
NOTES:
- Line your baking sheet with parchment and use the convection feature on your oven, if you have it, to brown up those chicken parts.
- I added lime for an extra zing, but I’ve made this without and its just as good. Â Don’t sweat it if you don’t have a lime.
- Got more chicken? Â Double the sauce! Â You can never have too much sauce!
