Honey Glazed Chicken

Honey Glazed Chicken
2 lbs of diced uncooked chicken breast
1/3 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
4 TB butter
1/4 cup honey
3 TB lemon juice
2 TB soy sauce
1/2 tsp. ground ginger

Heat oven to 350. In a shallow dish combine the flower and seasonings. Dip each piece of chicken in flour mixture and coat evenly.Melt 2 TB butter in a shallow baking dish, large enough to accommodate chicken in a single layer. Arrange chicken in pan and bake uncovered for 30 minutes at 350 degrees.Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt remaining butter and add honey, lemon juice, soy sauce and ginger.After chicken has baked the 30 minutes, turn each piece over and pour sauce mixture evenly over chicken. Bake another 30 to 40 minutes basting frequently.Serve over rice. I usually double the sauce ingredients and bake entire amount over chicken to serve over the rice. The sauce tastes so much better after it has baked in the oven it makes a nice thick sauce that compliments the chicken perfectly.
