Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts boneless and skinless
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ cup flour (30g)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ⅓ cup honey (80ml)
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- sesame seeds garnish
- sliced green onion garnish
Instructions
- Season the chicken pieces all over with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Place the flour in a shallow dish.
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, vinegar, and garlic cloves.
- In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Coat the chicken in flour and place directly into the hot skillet. Cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Flip and brown on the other side, about 5 minutes more.
- Pour the sauce into the skillet and shake it to distribute throughout the pan. (It may bubble up quite a bit.) Turn the heat down to medium-low. Simmer for 3 minutes. Flip the chicken, coating the pieces in the sauce. Cook for another few minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. (If the sauce gets too thick, add a splash of water to thin it out.) Serve immediately and garnish with sliced green onion and sesame seeds, if desired.
Notes
- If your chicken breasts were frozen beforehand, make sure you fully thaw them and pat them dry with paper towels to remove any moisture. The flour will stick much better to your chicken breasts.
- You can add some heat to this by adding some sriracha or red pepper flakes to the sauce.
- Don’t move the chicken around after adding them to the skillet. This will help the chicken cook evenly, and you get a nicer sear.
- I recommend using a large skillet to make this chicken recipe so that the chicken breasts aren’t overcrowded and will sear properly instead of steaming.
- Make sure that your chicken breasts are the same thickness so that they cook evenly.
- If your chicken breasts are large, buy two and cut them in half lengthwise to create thinner cutlets.
