Description

A simple and quick recipe for Honey Garlic Chicken Breasts, combining sweet honey and savory garlic for a delightful flavor that everyone will love.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large chicken breasts
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey

Instructions

  1. Start by searing the chicken breasts in a skillet until they are golden brown on both sides. Once done, remove them from the skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about a minute until fragrant. Then, mix in the soy sauce and honey to make the honey garlic sauce.

Notes

Don’t overcook the chicken to keep it juicy. For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the sauce beforehand.
