→ Main
01 -
500g chicken breast, boneless and skinless (2 pieces)
02 -
Salt, to taste
03 -
Black pepper, to taste
04 -
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
05 -
3 1/2 tbsp (50g) unsalted butter or 2 1/2 tbsp olive oil
06 -
2 garlic cloves, minced
07 -
1 1/2 tbsp apple cider vinegar or white vinegar
08 -
1 tbsp light or all-purpose soy sauce
09 -
1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
# Instructions:
01 -
Slice the chicken breasts horizontally to create 4 thin fillets. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
02 -
Place flour in a shallow dish and coat each chicken piece, shaking off any excess flour.
03 -
In a large skillet over high heat, melt most of the butter while reserving about 1 tsp. Add the chicken and cook for 2-3 minutes on one side until golden brown. Flip and cook for another minute.
04 -
Lower heat to medium-high. Push chicken to the sides of the pan and add garlic along with the reserved butter. Stir until the garlic softens slightly.
05 -
Add vinegar, soy sauce, and honey to the pan. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer, cooking until the sauce thickens slightly (about 1 minute).
06 -
Turn the chicken to ensure it's evenly coated in the sauce. If the sauce becomes too thick, add water in small amounts to adjust consistency.
07 -
Remove the skillet from heat. Plate the chicken and drizzle any remaining sauce over the top before serving.
