4boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/2cuphoney
1/2 cupketchup
1/2 cupbrown sugar
1/4cupsoy sauce
1/4teaspoongarlic powder
1cupflour
Instructions
In a medium bowl or a large measuring cup (I use a 4-cup measuring cup), stir together the ketchup, soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, and garlic powder until well combined.
1/2 cup honey, 1/2 cup ketchup, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
If using the microwave: Heat for one minute and stir. Repeat in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth and well blended. If using a saucepot: Heat over medium heat, stirring often, until it becomes hot enough to blend together well with no lumps.
Place enough sauce in the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish to be able to spread it around and cover the bottom.
Place 1 cup of flour in a shallow bowl. Dip each chicken breast into flour on both sides and place in the baking dish top side down. Spoon remaining sauce over them, making sure to coat the chicken.
1 cup flour, 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Place in a 350-degree oven, uncovered. After 30 minutes, remove from oven and carefully flip chicken pieces over. Spoon sauce from baking dish over them again and return to oven for another 15-30 minutes, or until chicken is fully cooked, basting once more while cooking.
Remove from oven and baste again. Allow to sit for five minutes and baste once more before serving. Excellent served with yellow rice or mashed potatoes so you can spoon some of that delicious sauce over them!
