Notes
Bake at 425°F for 20-25 minutes for boneless breasts, or 35-40 minutes for bone-in pieces. Same rules apply: let the excess marinade drip off before it goes in the pan, and rest it 5 minutes before cutting in. You won't get the char from the grill, but the honey will still caramelize nicely in the oven.
