Description

A deliciously sticky, sweet, and savory honey garlic chicken dish that is quick to prepare and sure to impress.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Cooked rice or mixed vegetables for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a bowl, whisk together honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, olive oil, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish and pour your honey garlic mixture over them, ensuring they are nicely coated.
  4. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  5. Once cooked, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve with rice or steamed vegetables.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the honey garlic mixture for at least an hour. Use a cast-iron skillet for a better sear before baking.
