1.Prepare the chicken breasts by patting them dry with paper towels.

2.In a small bowl, mix hoisin sauce, soy sauce, garlic powder, ginger powder, and sesame oil to make the marinade.

3.Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are evenly coated. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

4.Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

5.Place the marinated chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through, basting with the marinade halfway through.

6.While the chicken is baking, rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Drain the rice and transfer it to a pot.

7.Add water to the pot with rice and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.

8.Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.

9.Serve the hoisin glazed chicken over a bed of steamed rice.
