Easy baked chicken tossed in a super flavorful Honey Garlic Sauce! Served with a side of rice and some veggies and you have a 30 minute meal your whole family will love!
A lot of the recipes I love seem to include Panko Crumbs lately. I do have a small obsession with them. See Panko Crusted Salmon and Perfectly Baked Fish Sticks posts just to name a few. I like crispy food but I don’t care much for fried stuff so panko crumbs are my friend!
Tips to make Honey Garlic Baked Chicken
- I used cut up chicken breasts but chicken tenders or chicken thighs would both be perfect.
- The sauce comes together in 5 minutes while the chicken is baking. Line your sheet pan with foil for easy clean up.
- It is no wonder this chicken dish is so popular! It is one of the best chicken recipes I have made and I make a whole lot of chicken recipes! Mr. Spatula ate two servings then finished off my last two bites. I made a big batch so leftovers are in my future!
- I could see this served over rice or as an appetizer. Double the sauce recipe and use as dip! I’ll be risking it all and making this again and again!
To easy dinners with tons of flavor!

Hi Angie – Yes, you make the sauce yourself. If you look at the recipe there is a title “Sauce” with the ingredients below. It’s a little confusing because there is a bullet next to it so it looks like an ingredient…that would be my fine technical skills! 🙂 I think you will love this chicken…it’s a fave around here!
