Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Fresh garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board and pat them dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt, pepper, and paprika.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts to the pan.
Sear the chicken breasts for 4-5 minutes on each side until they are golden brown. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium-low. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Stir in the honey, soy sauce, and apple cider vinegar. Allow the mixture to simmer for 2-3 minutes until it thickens slightly.
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and spoon the honey-garlic glaze over them. Cook for an additional 7-10 minutes, flipping the chicken occasionally to coat it in the sauce. Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the skillet from the heat and let the chicken rest for a couple of minutes to absorb the flavors.
Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm. Pair it with your favorite sides like steamed vegetables, rice, or mashed potatoes.
