Easy Honey Garlic Chicken Recipes

  • Recipe Submitted by on

 Ingredients List

  • 2 lbs chicken breasts, boneless & skinless
  • 1/3 cup honey (melt on the stove if it is hard)
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice or apple cider vinegar
  • 3 large garlic cloves
  • 1 tbsp cold water
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp green onion, for garnish
  • 2 tsp sesame seeds, for garnish

 Directions

Cut chicken breasts in half lengthwise to make thinner cutlets. More sauce will coat more chicken this way.
Grate 2 garlic cloves and mince the other one. More flavor this way.
In a large bowl, add chicken, honey, soy sauce, lemon juice and garlic. Stir with tongs and let marinate while oven is preheating.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F and line large rimmed baking sheet with silicone baking mat or unbleached parchment paper.
Arrange chicken in a single layer and bake for 20 minutes on the lowest rack, turning once.

While chicken is baking, pour marinade into a small pot. Don’t discard it – we will make delicious sauce. Place on a stove to bring to a boil.
In a small bowl, whisk cold water with cornstarch. When marinade is boiling, add slurry to it and cook until sauce has thickened, about 3-4 minutes.
Remove chicken from the oven and transfer onto a serving platter. Drizzle with sauce and sprinkle with green onion and sesame seeds.
Serve honey garlic chicken with brown rice, quinoa and broccoli. Or broccoli salad.
