Place chicken in resealable bag and add 4 Tbsp. of sriracha sauce and all of lime juice. Close bag and toss to coat chicken evenly; let stand for 15 minutes.

While chicken is cooking, whisk together remaining 2 Tbsp. sriracha sauce and 2 Tbsp. honey.
When chicken is finished cooking, remove from oven and brush each chicken with equal amount of honey/sriracha mixture. Cover with foil and let sit for 5 minutes.
Remove foil and top with fresh cilantro. Serve immediately with your favorite side dish.
