BONNIE'S HONEYED CHICKEN WITH LEMON BUTTER SAUCE image

This is an easy, delicious, no-fuss way to prepare chicken thighs. You can also use a cut-up chicken. The honey lemon butter sauce really kicks it up a notch. Leftovers make great chicken sandwiches, so you get two meals from one dish. Enjoy! The photo is my own. Recipe adapted from Maddy.
