Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts
- 0.5 cup Frozen lemonade concentrate
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the frozen lemonade concentrate, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 2
Place the chicken breasts in a resealable freezer bag or airtight container. Pour the lemonade marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are coated evenly.
Step 3
Seal the bag or container and remove as much air as possible. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, but preferably overnight for best flavor. Alternatively, label and freeze the marinated chicken if preparing as a make-ahead meal (OAMC).
Step 4
When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). If using frozen chicken, thaw completely in the refrigerator before cooking.
Step 5
Transfer the chicken and marinade to a baking dish and arrange the breasts in a single layer.
Step 6
Bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C). Baste the chicken with the marinade halfway through the cooking time to keep it moist.
Step 7
Remove the chicken from the oven, let it rest for 5 minutes, and serve warm. Pair with steamed vegetables or rice for a complete meal.
