Looking for a low carb paleo chicken recipe with an Asian twist? This pear ginger glaze is delicious and gives a hint of natural sweetness without any added sugars
In a medium bowl, whisk together the preserves, apple cider vinegar, coconut aminos or soy sauce and grated ginger until well combined. Pour into a large ziploc bag.
Pat chicken dry with paper towels, add to bag and seal. Turn bag over a few times to make sure each piece of chicken is coated with marinade. Let marinate in fridge for 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 375F. Lay chicken in a single layer on broiling pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Brush some of the marinade from the bag over chicken.
Bake 30 to 40 minutes, until skin is golden brown and chicken is cooked through.
