Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces boneless chicken breasts
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil (optional) For added moisture

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix the minced garlic, paprika, honey, salt, and pepper together for the marinade.
  3. Coat the chicken breasts with the marinade and allow them to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  4. If you have more time, letting them sit longer will deepen the flavor.
Cooking
  1. Once marinated, place the chicken breasts on a baking sheet.
  2. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
  3. Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing.
  4. Serve and enjoy your meal!

Notes

For added flavor, consider marinating the chicken overnight. Drizzle a little olive oil on the baking sheet for moisture.
