Preheat oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).
Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
While the chicken is searing, in a small bowl, mix together honey, gluten-free soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, and fresh thyme leaves.
Once the chicken is seared, pour the honey mixture over the chicken in the skillet.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165Β°F (74Β°C).
Remove the skillet from the oven and place it back on the stovetop over medium heat.
In a separate small bowl, mix cornstarch with water to form a slurry.
Add the cornstarch slurry to the skillet and stir gently until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.
Once the sauce is thickened, remove the skillet from heat.
Garnish the honey glazed chicken with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
