Ingredients
Scale
- 3–4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- Freshly ground pepper to taste
- 2 green onions, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spray a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
- Season the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper for added flavor.
- Create Your Marinade: In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and a dash of freshly ground pepper.
- Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to absorb.
- Bake the Chicken: Transfer the marinated chicken to the prepared baking dish. Bake for about 25-30 minutes or until cooked through (internal temperature should reach at least 165°F or 75°C).
- Garnish and Serve: Once done, remove from the oven and drizzle with additional sauce from the baking dish for enhanced flavor. Top with chopped green onions before serving.
