Instructions
Get prepped
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Whisk all the glaze ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
- Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
Cook the chicken
- Heat the oil in a large oven-proof pan over medium-high heat (I use a cast iron skillet).
- Sear the chicken breasts for 4 minutes on one side (resist the urge to flip early—let them get a good sear).
Finish the chicken in the oven
- Flip the chicken, then remove the pan from heat.
- Add the glaze to the pan, making sure the chicken is coated.
- Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping once halfway through. Add more chicken stock if the liquid reduces too much. Chicken is done when it reaches 165°F.
Serve
- Remove the chicken from the pan and drizzle with the extra glaze.
- Top with toasted pecans and sage leaves, if desired.
- Devour.
