2 chicken breasts, skinless and boneless
3 teaspoons soy sauce
1/4 cup onion, chopped

2 teaspoons honey
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1 teaspoon catsup

  • Broil chicken for 5 minutes, remove, and turn over.
  • Brush on remaining honey mixture and return to oven for another 5-10 minutes more (until juices run clear).

Tips:

  • Choose chicken breasts or thighs that are boneless and skinless to reduce the fat content.
  • Use a non-stick skillet or grill pan to prevent the chicken from sticking.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat to prevent it from drying out.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Make the honey glaze ahead of time and refrigerate it until you are ready to use it.
