Ingredients: 

  • 1 Tablespoon Pure Maple Syrup

  • 1 1/2 Teaspoon Reduced-Sodium Soy Sauce

  • 1 Teaspoon Lemon Juice

  • 1/2 Garlic Clove, Minced

  • 1/2 Teaspoon Fresh Ginger, Minced

  • 1/8 Teaspoon Freshly Ground Pepper

  • 1 (3 ounce) Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast

Instructions: 

  • Whisk syrup, soy sauce, lemon juice, garlic, ginger, and pepper in a small, shallow dish. Add chicken and turn to coat with the marinade; cover and refrigerate for 2 hours, turning once.

  • Coat an indoor grill pan with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserving the marinade) and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 165°F, 3 to 5 minutes per side.

  • Meanwhile, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until reduced by about half, about 4 minutes. Liberally baste the chicken with the reduced sauce and serve.
