  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 5 minute

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– ¼ cup honey
– ¼ cup soy sauce
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 teaspoon ground ginger
– 1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Fresh parsley or green onions for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Creating Honey Garlic Chicken Breasts is easy if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Start by washing the chicken breasts and patting them dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.

2. Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and ground ginger. Set aside.

3. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until hot.

4. Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken breasts to the skillet, cooking for about 5-7 minutes on one side until golden brown.

5. Flip the Chicken: Turn the chicken over and reduce the heat to medium. Pour the honey garlic sauce over the chicken.

6. Simmer: Let the chicken cook in the sauce for another 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

7. Thicken the Sauce (Optional): If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix the cornstarch with a tablespoon of water to create a slurry. Add this to the skillet and stir until the sauce thickens.

8. Garnish: Once the chicken is cooked, remove from heat and garnish with chopped parsley or green onions, if desired.

9. Serve and Enjoy: Plate the chicken with sauce drizzled over the top. Serve hot and enjoy!
