Have you ever used Chinese Five Spice? I had gotten a jar of it with intention to use it for a while now and couldn’t ever settle on what to make. I wanted something simple so you could taste the spices so I settled on this recipe. If you have any other great recipes that use this let me know.

The flavor reminds me of Indian cooking, but it’s not over powering. This is a simple dish which is really easy to prep ahead of time and pop in the oven when you’re ready. I used chicken breast instead of the parts for just 2 of us and cut the ingredients in half. If you use the chicken breast be sure you cut down the cooking time and keep and eye on it.
