Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 2 ½ lbs. total)
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • ½ cup honey
  • ¼ cup cider vinegar
  • ¼ cup chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons dry onion soup mix from a 1 ounce packet
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F (180C). Spray a large, shallow baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Season chicken with salt and pepper to taste and place in the prepared baking dish.
  • In a large jar with a lid, shake together olive oil, honey, cider vinegar, chili sauce, Worcestershire sauce, dry soup mix, and salt until completely combined.
  • Pour sauce over chicken.
  • Bake, uncovered, for about 35-40 minutes (or until chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F). Baste with pan sauce just before serving.

Notes

Cooking Just for Two? This is an easy recipe to cut in half to serve a smaller family. Just bake two chicken breasts and cut all of the sauce ingredients in half. Bake in a small baking dish that's just large enough to hold both pieces of chicken. Cooking time and instructions remain the same.
Want to Prep Ahead? You can shake together this sauce and keep it in the jar in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Shake it again to make sure that everything is fully combined before pouring over the chicken.
