Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 2 large large chicken breasts Boneless, skinless works best
  • 4 cloves garlic Minced
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce Use low-sodium if desired
  • 2 tablespoons honey Adjust based on sweetness preference

Method
 

Cooking
  1. Sear the chicken breasts in a skillet over medium heat until browned, then remove them from the skillet.
  2. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  3. Combine the soy sauce and honey in the skillet and stir well to make the honey garlic sauce.
  4. Return the chicken to the pan, ensuring it’s coated in the sauce.
  5. Simmer the chicken in the sauce for about 10-15 minutes, or until the sauce thickens and the chicken is cooked through.

Notes

Serve over a bed of rice or with steamed vegetables. Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro for added flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days or freeze for up to three months.
