  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– ¼ cup honey
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 2 teaspoons freshly cracked black pepper
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder

– ½ teaspoon salt
– Sliced green onions, for garnish (optional)
– Sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Creating Sweet and Spicy Honey Pepper Chicken is simple if you follow these easy steps:

1. Prep the Chicken: Start by cutting the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. This helps them cook evenly and quickly.
2. Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt until well combined.
3. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet, heat a little olive oil over medium-high heat.
4. Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are browned and cooked through. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
5. Add the Sauce: Pour the prepared sauce over the chicken. Stir well to coat all pieces evenly.
6. Simmer: Reduce the heat to medium and let the sauce simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes, allowing it to thicken and glaze the chicken.
7. Garnish: Once the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce is thick, remove from heat. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
8. Serve: Serve the chicken hot, either on its own or over rice or salad.

These straightforward steps will guide you in creating this delightful dish effortlessly.
