Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce Can be swapped for a gluten-free alternative
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish to prevent sticking.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined.
  3. Arrange the chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
  4. Pour the honey garlic sauce over the chicken, making sure each piece is thoroughly coated.
Cooking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven, uncovered, for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  2. For extra flavor, consider broiling for an additional 1 to 2 minutes for a caramelized finish.
  3. Once done, let the chicken rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
  4. Spoon any remaining sauce over the chicken breasts and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
