Oven-Roasted Star Anise And Cinnamon Chicken Recipe

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts;
  • 1/3 cup coconut aminos;
  • 1/4 cup chicken stock;
  • 4 tbsp. raw honey; (optional)
  • 2 tbsp. balsamic vinegar;
  • 2 tbsp. fresh ginger, minced;
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced;
  • 3 star anise;
  • 1 cinnamon stick;
  • 1/4 tsp. ground fennel seed;
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper;

Instructions

  1. To make the marinade, whisk together all the ingredients except for the chicken, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  2. 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)
  3. Preheat your oven to 400 F.
  4. If your marinating container wasn’t oven-safe, transfer the chicken breasts to a baking dish with the remaining marinade.
  5. Bake in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until cooked through and no longer pink, basting every 10 minutes.
