Maple Glazed Chicken Breasts

Maple Glazed Chicken Breasts — a recipe imported from the Wikibooks Cookbook.

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • ½ cup Grade B Amber maple syrup (Grade A Dark Amber would be okay too.)
  • ¼ cup chicken broth
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Melted butter
  • 1 Tbsp salt
  • 1 Tbsp freshly-ground black pepper
  • 2 Tbsp lemon pepper

Instructions

  1. 1
    Combine maple syrup, sauce, and broth in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and cook until reduced by ⅓. Set aside.
  2. 2
    Combine salt, pepper, and lemon pepper. Brush chicken with melted butter and press seasoning mixture into both sides of each chicken breast.
  3. 3
    Place chicken in a shallow roasting pan. Insert a probe thermometer into one of the pieces and roast at 375°F (190°C) until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  4. 4
    Brush top of chicken pieces with maple mixture. Remove while your broiler heats up.
  5. 5
    Place chicken under your preheated broiler until top is well browned and slightly charred.
  6. 6
    Remove to a plate and cover with aluminum foil. Let rest 7 minutes before serving with remaining maple mixture.
