Delicious Marinated Baked Chicken Recipe for Dinner

Ingredients

Servings:
6
  • 4 pieces chicken breasts (boneless and skinless)
  • 1 cup soy sauce (low sodium recommended)
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, honey, minced garlic, apple cider vinegar, and black pepper.

    Ensure the honey is well incorporated into the marinade.
  2. Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

    The longer the chicken marinates, the more flavorful it will be.
  3. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

    Make sure the oven is fully preheated for even cooking.
  4. Bake the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it in a baking dish. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

    Use a meat thermometer to check the temperature.
  5. Serve

    Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with your favorite sides.

    Pair with steamed vegetables or rice for a complete meal.
