    In small bowl, mix butter and honey. Top chicken with honey butter.

  • How do you crush peppercorns? If you don't have a peppermill, it's easy using a mortar and pestle, mini-food processor, or spice or coffee grinder. The low-tech method is to place them in a resealable plastic bag and pound with a meat mallet or rolling pin.
