Description
A quick and easy recipe for tender chicken breasts glazed in a flavorful honey garlic sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter, divided
- 6 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar
- 1/3 cup honey
- Kosher salt to taste
- Freshly cracked black pepper to taste
- Green onions, thinly sliced
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large frying pan over medium to medium-high heat.
- Slice the chicken breasts lengthwise into four thinner pieces. Season them with salt and pepper, then coat evenly with flour.
- Cook the floured chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter over medium-low heat. Add the sliced garlic and cook for 30-60 seconds until fragrant.
- Pour in the soy sauce and rice vinegar, scraping up any bits from the pan. Stir in the honey along with some salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Let it simmer for 4-5 minutes until it thickens.
- Return the chicken to the pan and let it simmer in the sauce for about 1 minute until warmed through.
- Serve the chicken garnished with thinly sliced green onions.
Notes
Slice the chicken thinly for quick cooking and a nice crust. Keep an eye on the garlic to avoid burning.
