Ingredients

Servings
  • 1.5 lbs. chicken breast boneless, skinless
  • ½ cup maple syrup
  • ½ cup Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce less sodium
  • 2 rosemary sprigs, fresh
  • 2 thyme sprigs, fresh
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together maple syrup, mustard, and soy sauce.
  3. Place chicken in a baking dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray (I used an 11 x 7-inch baking dish, but any similar size is fine). Sprinkle chicken with a little bit of salt and pepper, to taste.
  4. Pour sauce over chicken and toss to make sure that each piece of chicken is well coated. Place sprigs of fresh herbs in the dish (tucked alongside the chicken).
  5. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until meat thermometer reads 165 degrees F. Remove herbs from dish and discard. Be sure to spoon plenty of the delicious pan sauce over the chicken and garnish with additional herbs, if desired, before serving!

Notes

  • *I used 5 small chicken breasts that totaled 24 ounces. These small pieces of chicken were cooked through in about 25-30 minutes. If you are using larger pieces of chicken, you will need to increase the baking time to 35-40 minutes (or more).
