This mouth-watering five-ingredient glaze will make chicken breast incredibly delicious and special in just half an hour, perfect for a quick dinner at the end of a workday. For the glaze, you'll need fiery harissa paste, vinegar, garlic, butter, and honey. Brush the breast with it and bake. Serve with rice or couscous.



The recipes use measuring containers with the following volumes:
1 glass (st.) - 250 ml.
3/4 cup (st.) - 180 ml.
2/3 cup (st.) - 160 ml.
1/2 cup (st.) - 125 ml.
1/3 cup (st.) - 80 ml.
1/4 cup (st.) - 60 ml.
1 tablespoon (tbsp) - 15 ml.
1 teaspoon (tsp) - 5 ml.
1/5 teaspoon (tsp) - 1 ml.

Ingredients for the recipe:


  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (800-900 g)
  • 0.5 cups honey
  • 1 tbsp. l. + 1 tsp. harissa
  • 2 teaspoons distilled white vinegar
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a baking sheet with foil. Pat the chicken breasts dry, sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
  2. Combine the honey, harissa, vinegar, and garlic in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly, and continue stirring until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 7-8 minutes. Stir in the butter.

  3. Brush the chicken with half the glaze and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Remove the chicken from the oven and brush with the remaining glaze.
  4. Return the chicken to the oven and roast until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 165°F (74°C), another 5 to 10 minutes.

    Note

    Harissa, a North African hot red pepper paste, can be found in Middle Eastern markets and many supermarkets.
