Ingredients

    2 large boneless/skinless chicken breasts
    1 tbsp lemon juice
    1 tbsp olive oil
    1/2 tbsp honey
    1 clove minced garlic
    1 tsp ground oregano
    dash of salt & pepper

Directions

Mix all the ingredients together and put it in a ziplock bag with chicken and marinate for a minimum of 30 minutes in fridge.
The longer you marinate the better it will be I usually let it sit overnight.

Place each piece of chicken on a large piece of parchment paper, spoon a tbsp or so of marinade on top of chicken and fold in ends and bottom of parchment paper to make a pouch that will essentially steam your chicken in its own juices. A very low fat way to cook....I prefer this over a pan fry method as a single (one) tbsp of olive oil has almost 10gr of fat....healthier fat yes but fat none the less.

    So for a beginner cook do I bake this dish? And if so what temperature and how long? I really don't want to guess and ruin what could be a delicious meal. - 8/20/17
