Oven-Roasted Star Anise and Cinnamon Chicken
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts boneless, skinless
- 1/3 cup coconut aminos
- 1/4 cup chicken stock
- 4 tbsp honey raw (optional)
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbsp ginger fresh, minced
- 3 star anise
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1/4 tsp ground fennel seed
- salt
- pepper
Instructions
- To make the marinade, whisk together all the ingredients except for the chicken, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Place the chicken breasts with the marinade, and marinate for 2 to 4 hours. (To save dishes, you could do this in an oven-safe dish, like Pyrex)
- Preheat your oven to 400 F.
- If your marinating container wasn’t oven-safe, transfer the chicken breasts to a baking dish with the remaining marinade.
- Bake in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until cooked through and no longer pink, basting every 10 minutes.
