Easy Chicken Recipe

[A1food4U]

Been working on this one for a while. If the calorie count is higher than you'd like, subtitute 4 Tbsp Stevia for the honey and increase water to 1/4 cup, that reduces carbs and calories significantly

Sweet Soy Glazed Chicken with Veggies
Ingredients:

1/3 cup honey
3 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons very hot tap water
6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 1.5 pounds)
3 cups green beans or asparagus (trim about 3 inches off spears), rinse and cut into 2-inch long pieces
Preparation:

Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Line a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with aluminum foil.
In a large bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, pepper, and hot water with whisk. Add chicken thighs to the bowl and move them around to coat all the chicken well.
Spread chicken with sweet soy glaze to prepared baking dish. Bake for 15 minutes. Sprinkle the vegetables on top and baste the chicken and vegetable with the glaze from the edges of the pan. Bake 20 more minutes or until vegetables are just tender and chicken is cooked throughout.

Hey A1! Have you ever tried this with Stevia?

[A1food4U]

Just once as a trial application, the glazing of the chicken is a little lighter than with the honey, you'll need to baste it a couple of times during cooking. as the meal progresses and the liquids reduce it'll thicken nicely even with the stevia

Thanks A1! I'm going to give this a shot in the next week. I needed a new chicken recipe.
