Easy Honey & Lime Roast Chicken, A beginners recipe for roast chicken The glaze gives it a subtle honey & lime flavour I also do my turkey at Christmas like this , I saved this to my collection of recipes a while ago and finally got around to trying it last night Wow! I’ve roasted a lot of chickens and turkeys over the years and this might be my new default I didn’t change a thing, and it was delicious So simple I added some flour to the pan drippings to make a tasty gravy The lime-honey combo is sublime — not too citrus, not too sweet (Served with Au Gratin Potatoes and Broccoli Rabe with Garlic ) Thank you, Sylvie!, Incredible flavours! I had fresh limes from the garden & love whole baked chicken, so this recipe was a winner for me 🙂
