Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1/3 cup honey
– 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Lemon slices and chopped parsley for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create your own Honey Lemon Chicken Skillet:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. Heat the Skillet: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
3. Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken breasts to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
4. Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, lemon juice, and minced garlic until well combined.
5. Add the Sauce to the Chicken: Once the chicken is cooked, pour the honey lemon sauce over the chicken in the skillet.
6. Simmer: Reduce the heat to medium-low. Allow the sauce to simmer for an additional 3-5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.
7. Serve: Remove the skillet from heat. Garnish with optional lemon slices and chopped parsley for added flavor and presentation.
