This mouthwatering dish is perfect for lunch or dinner and serves four people. With a total calorie count of just 190 kcal per serving, it's a healthy option that won't leave you feeling weighed down.
The star of this recipe is, of course, the chicken. We've used skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, which are both lean and packed with protein. But what really makes this dish stand out is the unique blend of flavors. The marinade features hoisin sauce, a popular Chinese ingredient that combines sweet, salty, and umami flavors, along with apricot preserves for a touch of natural sweetness. A splash of fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth helps to create a savory glaze that will have your taste buds dancing.
To ensure that your chicken is tender and evenly cooked, we'll be using a meat mallet or rolling pin to pound the breast halves to a uniform 1/4-inch thickness. This simple step makes all the difference in achieving that perfect, juicy texture. And with a cooking time of just 45 minutes, this recipe is great for busy weeknights or when you're expecting guests.
So why not give Chinese-Style Glazed Chicken Breasts a try for your next meal? It's sure to be a hit with your whole family, and it's a great way to enjoy the rich, diverse flavors of Chinese cuisine in the comfort of your own home.
