Ingredients

Servings
  • 1/2 cup hot sauce
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1.5 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 2 teaspoons cumin ground
  • 4 chicken breast thinly pounded, cutlets
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 4 cloves garlic minced

Optional (for garnish)

  • 2 scallions chopped finely

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine the hot sauce, sour cream, ketchup, honey, paprika and cumin and whisk  together.
  2. Pour half the mixture over the chicken breasts in a shallow dish.  Set the rest aside for later.
  3. Cover the chicken dish and allow to marinate in the fridge for as long as you have - overnight is good, but 30 mins will work just fine too. 
  4. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.  Add the garlic, cook for 30 seconds. 
  5. Decrease to medium heat, add the chicken and cook until browned on both sides and cooked through, 10-15 minutes.
  6. Heat the remaining marinade in a small saucepan until warmed through.
  7. Serve chicken and drizzle sauce over top
  8. Sprinkle with green onions, if using.
  9. Devour!

Notes

  • Cook the chicken at medium heat. If you cook the chicken at too high of a heat, the honey will cause your chicken to burn - you may alternately brown the chicken, and then place in a baking dish and cook until the chicken reaches 165°F
  • Marinate a day ahead and let the flavors really deepen.
  • Discard the marinade you used on the chicken, we will make a sauce out of the reserved marinade that HASN'T touched raw chicken.
  • Ramp up the hot sauce if you like it spicy, dial it back if you prefer flavor over heat.
