Maple Glazed Chicken

I love finding new ways to enjoy chicken! Especially when you find quick and easy recipes! This was absolutely delicious and it'll definitely be on my list of recipes when I don't want to spend a lot of time. And, usually I'll have most of the ingredients on hand anyway! Overall, a 4/5 dish!
