Ingredients

• 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 2 tablespoons Gluten-free soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
• 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.

Step 3

In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Step 5

While the chicken is searing, in a small bowl, mix together honey, gluten-free soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, and fresh thyme leaves.

Step 6

Once the chicken is seared, pour the honey mixture over the chicken in the skillet.

Step 7

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Step 8

Remove the skillet from the oven and place it back on the stovetop over medium heat.

Step 9

In a separate small bowl, mix cornstarch with water to form a slurry.

Step 10

Add the cornstarch slurry to the skillet and stir gently until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.

Step 11

Once the sauce is thickened, remove the skillet from heat.

Step 12

Garnish the honey glazed chicken with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
