Ingredients

For the Chicken:

  • 4 pieces skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce (use gluten-free if needed)
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 1/4 cup Golden Monkfruit Sweetener (or sweetener of your choice)
  • 1 tablespoon minced ginger (or fresh grated ginger root)
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic (or fresh garlic, finely diced)
  • 2 tablespoons peanut oil
  • to taste thinly sliced green onions (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, water, Golden Monkfruit Sweetener, minced ginger, minced garlic, and peanut oil. Whisk everything together until well blended.
  • Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is coated evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for best results.
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it in the oven. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Optionally, broil for the last 2-3 minutes for caramelization.
  • Once cooked, let the chicken rest for a few minutes. Slice and serve, drizzling any leftover marinade over the top. Garnish with green onions if desired.

Equipment

  • Baking dish (9x13 inches)
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Measuring Cups
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Meat Thermometer

Notes

  • For a soy-free option, use coconut aminos instead of soy sauce.
  • Adjust sweetener quantities to taste if using different types.
  • Consider adding vegetables like bell peppers or broccoli to the baking dish for a one-pan meal.
