There's a reason this one earned its shimmering name. A quick honey-lime baste caramelizes over the chicken as it roasts, leaving the breasts glossy, tender, and edged with paprika warmth. The clever trick of sealing the pan in foil to rest means the meat finishes juicy every time. It's an easy weeknight main that looks and tastes far fancier than the short ingredient list suggests.
