Honey Baked Chicken

“AFTER our children left home, I had to learn to cook all over again, I began to economize on food purchases by buying some meats in quantity and freezing extras for future menus. My husband especially loves this chicken recipe, which I pared down to fit our life-style today. --Helen Whelan Jarrettsville, Maryland”

Too plain and was way too sweet for the chicken. I would add a little bit of salt to balance it out a little.

I did this, adding a bit of garlic and curry during the pre-baking. It turned out really good.

This recipe was excellent. I added a little bit of curry poweder and cut back on the honey. I served this over brown rice. It was great and my 2 yr. old ate the entire thing.

Easy and Cheap! I already had all of the required ingredients, and that's one of my number one priorities when looking through recipes. I made the "sauce" with and without curry powder (as other reviewers have suggested) and my fiance and I both decided it was too sweet to leave it out. We both gave this recipe a big thumbs up and it has been moved into the "do again" section of my recipe book. Yum!

I did not enjoy this at all. For some reason the mustard would not break down in the honey and butter, even after heating it up. Not sure what I did wrong. It tasted like honey poured over chicken. Will not use again, sorry.

This was a great dish, my daughter loved it but because it was a little sweet I add a little course black pepper to give it a kick.

This recipe is amazing. I cooked it last night for the first time, it takes hardly anytime in preparation. My husband, who is not a mustard fan, fell in love with it! It's fantastic.

I followed this recipe to the "T" and we really enjoyed it as a nice change of pace. The skin was crispy and the chicken was very moist.

This recipe was nice and quick (great for a work night) and definitely tasty! I did scale down the honey a bit (maybe closer to 1/3 c) and decided to add 1 tsp of curry powder after reading some reviews and I thought it turned out quite flavourful. I also sprinkled the chicken with garlic, pepper and salt while it cooked for the first 30 mins. It is on the sweeter side, so if that's not your thing, you may not enjoy. I also basted the chicken several times with the sauce once I added it. Will make again, thanks!

I thought this recipe was pretty good. I didnt think I was gonna like it at first because it really smelled like mustard and I dont like mustard but it turned out really good, you couldnt taste the musdard at all. I cooked the chicken for 20 minutes and then added the honey mixture and cooked for like another 45 minutes. I will make this aagin.

Delicious, but be forewarned if you don't like honey - it is very sweet.

This was so good! Looking over the different recipes I decided to add 1 tsp curry powder to the sauce. Tasted sooo amazing and smelled great too! Chicken was tender and juicy. Served with baked potatoes and Italian seasoned green beans. Family will love it!

For the first time in our marriage, my husband actually liked something that I didn't. He ate every bit of his chicken and half of mine. I absolutely love honey but as much as I hate to say it, this was just too much honey -- to the point that it distorted any possible flavors that should have been there. However, I must say that I used boneless breasts and they came out amazingly tender and pretty moist, too! I was very pleased about that aspect. I'm sure I could play around with this a bit and get it closer to my liking; only time will tell.
