1 (3 to 3 1/2-pound) whole chicken, rinsed and patted dry
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
6 tablespoons honey
1 lemon, zested
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon room temperature unsalted butter
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves

3 tablespoons light brown sugar

2 tablespoons cane or maple syrup
Pinch salt and pepper
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Arrange a rack inside a large roasting pan and set aside.
  • Season the chicken both inside and out with the kosher salt and black pepper.
  • In a small bowl, combine the honey, lemon zest and juice and butter. Place the chicken on a rack in a roasting pan breast side up and roast until lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Using a pastry brush, brush half of the honey mixture over the chicken, as well as sprinkling half the thyme over the chicken and return the chicken to the oven. Continue to cook another 30 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh registers 180 degrees F. Remove the chicken from the oven and brush the remaining honey blend and sprinkle the remainder of the thyme over the chicken.

HONEY BAKED CHICKEN WINGS



Honey Baked Chicken Wings image

My dad made something similar and I tried to copy him. I like honey and this is what my efforts yielded. The dish is actually better the next day as leftovers, because the flavors really soak in.

Provided by toypup

Categories     Chicken

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

24 chicken wings
2 teaspoons salt
4 teaspoons sugar
soy sauce
honey

Steps:

  • Throw some salt and sugar on the chicken wings.
  • Add enough soy sauce to nicely coat the chicken wings.
  • Place the chicken wings on a lightly greased cookie sheet in a single layer.
  • Squeeze honey over chicken wings (I turn the bottle of honey over and squeeze, making about three passes over each wing).
  • Bake at about 375 until honey carmelizes, turning occasionally-- It may take about 45 minutes-- Keep an eye on it--I like it when the wings are really browned but not burned.

Tips:

  • Use a whole chicken: This will give you more meat and make the chicken more flavorful.
  • Rinse the chicken inside and out: This will help to remove any bacteria or contaminants.
  • Pat the chicken dry: This will help the honey glaze to stick to the chicken.
  • Use a good quality honey: This will make the glaze more flavorful.
  • Brush the chicken with the honey glaze several times during cooking: This will help to keep the chicken moist and flavorful.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken is dry and tough.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before carving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken.

Conclusion:

Honey baked chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its crispy skin, tender meat, and flavorful glaze, this chicken is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a simple and delicious meal, give honey baked chicken a try. You won't be disappointed!
