👩🍳 Instructions
Step 1: Preheat Oven
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2: Make the Honey Garlic Glaze
In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, ketchup, olive oil, minced garlic, thyme, and oregano until smooth and combined.
Step 3: Prepare and Coat the Chicken
Place the chicken fillets in a baking dish. Season both sides with salt and pepper, then pour the honey garlic glaze over them, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.
Step 4: Bake Covered
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes.
Step 5: Bake Uncovered
Remove the foil and bake for another 15–20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F / 74°C) and the glaze turns thick and sticky.
Step 6: Rest and Serve
Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors can settle and the juices redistribute.
Juicy, flavorful, and beautifully glazed—this honey garlic chicken is comfort food made simple.
