500 g / 1 lb chicken breast , boneless and skinless (2 pieces)
1/4 cup / 60g flour
2 garlic cloves, minced
50 g / 3.5 tbsp unsalted butter (or 2 1/2 tbsp olive oil)
1 tbsp light soy sauce
1/3 cup / 90g honey (or maple syrup)
Salt and pepper
1 1/2 tbsp apple cider vinegar (or white or other clear vinegar)
Directions
- Cut the breasts in half horizontally to create 4 steaks in total. Sprinkle each side with salt and pepper.
- Place flour in a shallow dish. Coat chicken in flour and shake off excess.
- In a large skillet over high heat, heat most of the butter, until melted – hold back about 1 tsp for later.
- Place chicken in skillet, cook for 2 – 3 minutes, until golden.
- Turn and cook the other side, for 1 minute.
- Turn heat down slightly to medium high.
- Make a bit of room in the pan and add garlic and top with remaining dab of butter. Stir garlic briefly once butter melts.
- Add vinegar, soy sauce and honey. Stir / shake pan to combine. Bring sauce to simmer, then simmer for 1 minute or until slightly thickened.
- Turn chicken to coat in sauce. If the sauce gets too thick, add a touch of water and stir.
- Remove from stove immediately. Place chicken on plates and drizzle over remaining sauce.
