DELICIOUS!!!! I was a bit skeptical when I read some of the reviews because my family like bold flavors but I was very happy how this turned out! It was so quick and easy I had dinner done in no time! My modifications where I used chicken breasts that I flattened out and adjusted the cooking time a bit so the meat would not get over cooked I also just sprinkled thyme since a Tbsp sounded like a bit much. The sauce it made was very tasty and I served it over rice. Definatley going to Pin this one!

I enjoyed it. Following these directions, the sauce was strong, but the taste of the chicken was light as others have said. I may try using thicker slices of lemon and timing the honey a bit different. This video of Ramsay cooking this dish does it slightly differently:<br/><br/>http://youtu.be/mARkUax2jg0
