Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons lower-sodium soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves (6 ounces each)
• 1 cup parsley leaves

Directions

1. In a small bowl, stir together 2 tablespoons of the soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of the honey, the garlic, 1/4 teaspoon of the ginger, the cinnamon, and red pepper flakes. Rub the mixture onto the chicken breasts and set aside.

3. Meanwhile, in a food processor or blender, combine the parsley, broth, bread, and remaining 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon honey, and 1/4 teaspoon ginger. Process until smooth.
4. Serve the chicken with the pesto spooned on top.
