Sriracha Maple Garlic Baked Chicken

Serves 4 (double or triple as needed!)

Ingredients:

2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts cut lengthwise into 4 thin strips, or pound into Paillards
4 T light oil, divided
3 large garlic cloves chopped finely
2 – 3 T real maple syrup
2 T fresh squeezed lemon juice
¼ t salt, 1/8 t pepper for sauce (extra for chicken breasts.)
1 t sriracha

Method:

• Prepare chicken breasts and set into a glass baking dish, touching but not overlapping. Take 2 T of oil and rub all over. Sprinkle with a bit of salt and pepper.
• In a small bowl combine the Sriracha, maple syrup, lemon juice, garlic, 1 T oil, salt and pepper, and whisk well to combine. Pour over the chicken breasts.
• Roast chicken in a 375 degree F oven for about 25 minutes or until chicken is just done. Do not overcook. Cooking time depends upon thickness of chicken.
• Serve with creamed spinach and roasted tomatoes. Garnish with Italian parsley.
