Instructions
- Cut the chicken in half lengthwise so you have four thinner cutlets. Sprinkle them with the pepper and garlic powder, and then coat each piece in flour.
- Add 1 tbsp of the butter and the olive oil to a skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan's hot, add the chicken. Cook it for 4-5 minutes/side until golden, then transfer to a plate.
- Take the pan off the heat and add the chicken broth, soy sauce, honey, garlic, and remaining butter. Return it to the heat and let the sauce bubble for about a minute or so.
- In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 1 teaspoon of cold water, then pour it into the skillet and give it a stir.
- Add the chicken back to the pan (along with any juices on the plate) and continue cooking until the sauce has reduced a bit and the chicken is fully cooked through (about 5 minutes). You may need to reduce the heat so it's not bubbling like crazy. Serve immediately.
Notes
- If needed, you can skip the flour dredge on the chicken. It helps it nicely brown in a fairly short amount of time and also helps thicken the sauce a bit (but the cornstarch does most of the thickening).
