In a small bowl combine Sriracha sauce, honey, lime juice and garlic. Whisk the sauce together. Reserve two tablespoons of the sauce for serving with the finished chicken. Place sauce into a large bowl. Place the leg quarters one at a time, and coat with the Sriracha sauce. Place chicken on a wire rack on a baking sheet. Repeat with remaining pieces of chicken.
