Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 0.5 cup chili sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 stalks green onions (optional, for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, whisk together chili sauce, honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and ground ginger to form the chili glaze.
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the skillet from heat.
Pour the chili glaze over the chicken breasts, coating them evenly.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes.
Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
Serve hot with your choice of side dishes, such as rice or steamed vegetables.
