Ingredients

Scale

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
1/2 cup hot honey
2 cups mixed fresh vegetables (bell peppers, broccoli, carrots)
2 cups cooked rice or quinoa
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
2 tbsp fresh lime juice

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly spray a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
In a small bowl, whisk together hot honey, soy sauce, and lime juice.
Place the seasoned chicken in the baking dish and pour half of the sauce over it. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
While the chicken bakes, sauté mixed vegetables in a skillet over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes until vibrant but crisp.
Once cooked, slice the chicken and serve over rice or quinoa topped with sautéed veggies and remaining sauce.
