Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 large chicken breast
  • black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • flour for dredging
  • 2 tablespoons butter divided
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock low-sodium, or broth
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce low-sodium
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch

Instructions

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 1 teaspoon of cold water, then pour it into the skillet and give it a stir.
  5. 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).
