Step-by-Step Instructions
First, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Trust me, getting the oven hot is key to achieving beautiful caramelization on the chicken and veggies. While it’s heating, I love to create a marinade that’s bursting with island flavor. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, olive oil, garlic, and ginger. Once combined, set aside a few tablespoons of this marinade for drizzling later. Then, toss the chicken breasts in the remaining marinade, making sure they’re thoroughly coated. This simple step packs a flavor punch! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
