Cooking Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and spray a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
Whisk together the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and cornstarch in a mixing bowl until smooth.
Arrange the seasoned chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish and pour the sauce over the top, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
Bake the chicken for 25-30 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Drizzle any remaining sauce over the chicken right before serving and allow it to rest for five minutes.
