Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 lbs chicken (thighs or breasts) Use your preferred cut of chicken.
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, mix together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  2. Add the chicken to the bowl and coat well with the marinade. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
Cooking
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a little oil.
  2. Once hot, add the chicken and cook until golden brown, about 6-7 minutes per side.
  3. If desired, mix cornstarch with a little water and add to the skillet to thicken the sauce.
Serving
  1. Serve the chicken hot, drizzled with the remaining glaze, and garnish with sliced green onions.

Notes

To store leftovers, place in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or stovetop. For a vegan version, substitute chicken with tofu or cauliflower.
