I was making a casserole to bring to a family at church.

It did feel extremely 1950s housewife.

But still a good thing to do. :)

Chicken baked in Honey and Rum

(Krissy corrupts the youth)

Preheat oven to 375.

Chicken parts -- I like leg quarters for this. You can also get a whole chicken and cut it up. Put in pan.

Equal parts honey and rum, thinned with a little chicken broth. (You perfectly well COULD use light rum for this, if that's what you have, but dark rum has a stronger flavor and is better.) Cook the honey and rum just long enough to thin the honey.

Pour/brush half the honey/rum/broth mixture on the chicken

Bake 30 minutes.

Pour/brush the remaining.

Bake 15 minutes.
