Simple Way to Honey Lemon Chicken With Rice

Great with quinoa or brown rice and lots green veggies.

Recipe Summary Honey Chicken

Chicken breasts bathed in a tangy, citrus honey marinade, then baked. This is a great marinade for chicken breasts. For a more low-fat recipe, try reducing the amount of oil. As far as I can tell, it's just used to 'glue' the marinade to the chicken.
