  5. Place the chicken in a roasting tin and place in the middle of your preheated oven.

  8. Using the juices from the roasting tin, baste the chicken every 30 mins to stop it from drying out.

  10. 30 mins before your chicken will be done take it out of the oven and brush with the lime& honey glaze.
  11. Return to the oven to finish roasting, at the end of the roasting time make sure all juices run clear by inserting a skewer into the thickest part of the thigh.
