2 tablespoons pure maple syrup 1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce 2 teaspoons lemon juice 1 clove garlic, minced 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 8ounces), trimmed and tenders removed (see Tip) Whisk syrup, soy sauce, lemon juice, garlic, ginger and pepper in a small, shallow dish. Add chicken and turn to coat with the marinade; cover and refrigerate for 2 hours, turning once. Coat an indoor grill pan with cooking spray and heat over medium heat.
