Here are a couple tips for making the perfect honey lemon chicken:
Don’t skimp on the seasoning
Make sure the pan is hot to get good color
You can make it all in the same pan if you want, but if you double the recipe, you may need to dirty a second pan anyway to brown the chicken in batches- (and not every skillet is oven-safe, AND if you’re using cast iron, you may not want to have acidic lemon juice on it)
Make some rice (and a veggie) while the chicken is in the oven!
The oven is used mainly to cook the chicken all the way through, get a little caramelization in the lemons, and it gives you time to clean up and prepare other parts of the meal.
