Honey Glazed Chicken or Pork Chops

2lbs boneless chicken

1/3 c flour
1/2 tsp garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste

5 T butter
1/2 c honey
1/4 c brown sugar
1/4 c soy sauce
1/3 c lemon juice
1 tsp ground ginger
Cayenne pepper to tast depending on how spicy you like it

Serve over rice

Heat oven to 350. In a shallow dish combine the flour, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Dip the meat in flour mixture and coat evenly.
Melt 2 T butter in a shallow baking dish, large enough to accommodate the meat in a single layer. Arrange meat in pan and bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes.

In a small saucepan melt remaining butter and add honey, lemon juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, ginger and cayenne pepper. Boil for several minutes until sauce begins to thicken.

After meat has baked for 15-20 minutes, turn each piece over and pour sauce mixture evenly over it. Bake another 20 to 30 minutes or until cooked through.

*Jamie notes- This was so good and I will definitly make it again.
