Easter Honey Chicken

Ingredients:

2 lbs chicken halves w/ skins
1 c honey
1/2 butter
1/4 c lemon (or lime) juice
1 tsp salt
3 Tbsp thyme

Preheat oven to 325. Salt chicken and arrange in a single layer in the baking dish. Mix all other ingredients in a sauce pan and simmer 5 minutes. Baste chicken with mixture and place in the oven. Baste every 20 minutes. Cooking time...1 to 1 1/2 hours (depending on the size of the chicken), cook until the liquids run clear.

This recipe can also be done on the BBQ but honey is sugary and blackens easily so I recommend basting less frequently on the grill.
