Honey-Baked Chicken

Last summer, during our cookbook tour of Nourishing Traditions, I made this recipe which was divine. This dish made me think of the country-cousin to that recipe–a little less refined, less fussy, and more humble. Still, it was delicious. It wasn’t divine, but it was delicious. And it was easy.

I made very few changes to the original recipe. I used grapeseed oil instead of margarine. It would also be delicious with coconut oil, butter, or plain ol’ olive oil.

My oven also tends to run a little hot, so I ended up cooking it for about an hour, a little shy of the recommended hour and 15 minutes. As you can see from the photo, it was beginning to burn.

We served ours up with some rice and steamed broccoli. All tummies at the table were well-pleased and you can bet we’ll be visiting this dish again in our house.
