A little bit of hot mixed with a little bit of sweet is a perfect combination of love! We had a special night celebrating Riley getting confirmed and this recipe was perfect. I was able to prepare these chicken breasts earlier in the day and then stick them in the over at dinner time. They came out moist and oh my….oh so good!
Sriracha Chicken Breasts
Ingredients
- 2 lbs skinless, bone-in chicken breasts OR boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 4 pieces)
- Salt and pepper
Sauce
- 1/4 cup Sriracha
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tbsp. butter, melted
- 2 tsp. soy sauce
- 1/4 tsp. red chili flakes
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425F. Place chicken in pan and season with salt and pepper.
- Combine all the sauce ingredients. Pour about half the mixture onto the chicken breasts. Place into oven and bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove from oven, pour remaining sauce on top, and place back into oven. Lower temperature to 375F and bake for another 10 minutes or until chicken reaches 160F internally (you may need another 5-10 minutes on top of that for bone-in breasts!)
My sweet Riley requested a home cooked meal instead of going out to dinner to celebrate his special night. This recipe did not disappoint, everyone loved it. Little do they know it was super quick and easy to make!
I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
