This recipe offers a flavorful and aromatic chicken dish, perfect for a satisfying meal.
Combine the olive oil, soy sauce, honey, and apple cider vinegar in a mixing bowl.
Whisk the ingredients thoroughly to ensure a well-blended marinade.
Add the thyme, paprika, cayenne pepper, allspice, and black pepper to the marinade and mix well.
Adjust the spice levels to your preference for a milder or spicier flavor.
Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well coated.
For best results, let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or overnight.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated before placing the chicken inside for even cooking.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, basting occasionally with the marinade, until fully cooked.
Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds over the cooked chicken before serving.
Serve the chicken with a side of steamed rice or your favorite vegetables for a complete meal.
