Honey Sauced Chicken

This is one of those wonderful, versatile meals that can be made in the crock pot, or in the oven. If you have the time to do it in the morning, put in in the crock pot and let it go, or if you forget (like me) to get it going earlier, it can be done in the oven in like 30 minutes. It is amazing! One of those dishes that I love to have around! It is from Mmm...Cafe, a delightful little blog! Enjoy!

3/4 pound chicken (of your choice)
1/2 tsp. salt
