Steps

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a small bowl, mix the fruit jam and soy sauce until well combined.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
Sear the chicken breast for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Pour the jam mixture over the chicken, ensuring it's evenly coated.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).
Remove from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes, then slice and serve, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
