Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped green onions for garnish
Instructions
- Mix the glaze: In a bowl, mix together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Coat the chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish and pour the honey garlic mixture over the top, ensuring the chicken is well coated.
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Bake the chicken: Bake the chicken for 25-30 minutes, or until cooked through and no longer pink in the center. Halfway through cooking, baste the chicken with the sauce for extra flavor.

Ensure the chicken is at room temperature before cooking for even cooking. Don’t skip the basting! It enhances flavor and keeps the chicken moist. Use fresh ingredients for the best results.
