Let’s gather the ingredients you’ll need to create this delicious dish. These simple elements come together to form a symphony of flavors that will have everyone asking for seconds.

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

If you’re out of apple cider vinegar, white vinegar or lemon juice can work as substitutes. For a gluten-free option, swap the all-purpose flour with almond flour.

  1. Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Dust them lightly with flour.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, stir in the honey, soy sauce, and apple cider vinegar.
  4. Let the sauce simmer for about 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.
  5. Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over each piece to coat evenly. Cook for another 2 minutes to ensure the chicken is well-glazed and heated through.
  6. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve immediately.

Remember, the key to a perfect glaze is patience. Allow the sauce to thicken just enough to stick to the chicken without becoming too syrupy.
