The list of ingredients you will need are:

  1. Eight cloves of garlic, each sliced 1/8 inch thick
  2. Two tablespoons of olive oil
  3. Four halves of boneless chicken breast, with skin
  4. Salt and freshly ground pepper
  5. Two tablespoons of honey
  6. One pint of cherry tomatoes
  7. Ten fresh rosemary sprigs, each four inches long
  8. One or two small dried hot chillies
  9. One tablespoon of red wine vinegar.

Start by preheating your oven to 425° F. Take a baking dish measuring 9-by-13-inches, preferably either enameled cast-iron or glass, and toss the sliced garlic with one tablespoon of oil. Then, bake this in the oven for about 5 minutes. Ensure it sizzles but doesn’t brown.

Meanwhile, prepare the chicken. Lay it skins side down on a sheet of wax paper. Season it with salt and pepper, then coat it with half of the honey. Once the garlic in the oven has started to sizzle, remove the baking dish, and to the side, place your seasoned chicken breasts, skin side up. You can further season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper and the rest of your honey.

Next, position the cherry tomatoes, six rosemary sprigs, and the dried chillies around the chicken. Drizzle the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over these ingredients, and don't forget to add some more salt and pepper. It's off to the oven now for about 25 minutes. During this time, remember to baste the chicken occasionally using the juices in the pan.

Check if your chicken is fully cooked. Once ready, transfer the chicken, tomatoes, and garlic to plates. Stir some red wine vinegar into the baking dish, then pour the resulting sauce over the chicken. As a finishing touch, garnish each serving with a fresh rosemary sprig. Enjoy your succulent garlic honey chicken!
