I would say that liquid honey is more like the consistency of maple syrup. I dont know the recipe that you are talking about but honey and lime sounds really good to me as I do have a recipe for chicken that we love and iit uses honey. Does it call for a huige amount. It'd be more the maple flavour she's using it for I reckon...rg

I would try one of both this time and you can always make it again with the maple syrup next time. Who knows... maybe you even prefer it this way.....
