This delicious honey garlic chicken is perfect for a busy weeknight dinner! It’s quick to prepare, easy to clean up, and packed with flavor. Let’s get cooking!

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup bell peppers, sliced
  • 1/2 cup green onions, chopped (for garnish)
  • Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, black pepper, and salt.
  2. Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, making sure it’s well coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the fridge for more flavor).
  3. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, add the marinated chicken breasts to the pan.
  4. Cook the Chicken: Sear the chicken for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and golden brown. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
  5. Sauté the Veggies: In the same pan, add the broccoli and bell peppers. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
  6. Combine: Return the chicken to the pan, pour the remaining marinade over everything, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
  7. Serve: Plate the chicken and vegetables, then sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds if desired.

Enjoy this quick and flavorful dish that brings a taste of the kitchen right to your table! Perfect for busy nights when you want something delicious without a lot of fuss.
