HONEY GLAZED CHICKEN

We really love our chicken at our place and because it is so often on special I always stock up the freezer when it is so I always have some on hand. This Honey Glazed chicken is a new recipe I tried and together with vegetables in season it was a tasty yet economical meal that the whole family enjoyed.

1/4 cup Honey
