1 (2 1/2 to 3 1/2 pound) chicken, cut up and skinned
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
1/2 cup honey
3 or 4 not too ripe bananas

In a cast iron skillet, melt the butter, then add the honey. Add chicken pieces. Lower the heat a bit, and cook for 20 minutes turning the chicken at least 4 times.

Preheat oven to 250 degrees F.

Add sliced bananas to the skillet, cover, and bake for 45 minutes. If there is too much liquid at the end of baking, you can add 1/4 to 1/2 cup thin cream to make a sauce. Serve over plain rice.

Serves 4.
