Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 0.25 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt, black pepper, and paprika.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet.
Once the butter has melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the honey, soy sauce, and apple cider vinegar. Cook the glaze, stirring frequently, for 2-3 minutes until it thickens slightly.
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the honey glaze over the top to coat them evenly. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to warm the chicken and fully absorb the flavors.
Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the chicken to a serving plate.
Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
