Next day, place chicken mixture over low heat and cook until chicken is heated through, about 10 minutes. Remove chicken from broth and place skin side up in a large, shallow baking pan. Spoon 1 cup chicken broth into the pan. Strain remaining broth; discard vegetables and save broth for use in other recipes for soups or stews. Using a pastry brush, brush chicken with half of the honey. Broil, 4 inches from heat source, for 2 minutes. Brush again with honey and broil until hicken is glazed and golden brown.
