Lord of the Breasts

Ok…that title sounds bad! This is recipe was originally called ‘Lord of the Wings’ but I’m using chicken breasts instead.

Recipe adapted from Eat, Shrink and Be Merry (Lord of the Wings)
3-4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/3 cup BBQ sauce
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp dijon mustard
2 tbsp liquid honey
2 tbsp lemon or lime juice
2 tsp minced garlic
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp cornstarch
Preheat to 400F. Place chicken in a greased baking pan (I like to line it with tin foil for easy cleanup). Whisk together BBQ sauce, soy sauce, mustard, honey, lemon juice, garlic and chili powder. Pour evenly over the chicken. Bake, uncovered, for 35-40 minutes, until chicken is cooked through. Set chicken aside and pour sauce into a saucepan. Mix cornstarch with 2 tsp water then add it to the sauce. Bring to a boil and whisk constantly until mixture has thickened. Pour it back over the chicken.
This is super easy to put together and it tastes amazing! I make this one on a regular basis and everyone likes it a lot. My boys like the sweet and tangy sauce, so I pour it over their vegetables to get them to eat those too.

    Sorry, I’m confused. So pour the first sauce mix on the chicken, then for the second sauce mix (with the cornstarch) are you making a new batch or are you using the same first sauce mix collected after pouring over chicken?Thank you.
