Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breasts
- 4 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons sriracha
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together honey, sriracha, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, paprika, red chili flakes, salt, and black pepper to create the spicy honey glaze.
Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the skillet from the heat.
Pour the spicy honey glaze evenly over the chicken breasts in the skillet.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes.
Spoon the glaze from the skillet over the chicken breasts and garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
Serve the spicy honey glazed chicken breasts hot, alongside rice, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
