Ingredients
  

Chicken
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs cut into bite-sized pieces
Sauce
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce low sodium preferred
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil optional
Garnish
  • 2 tablespoons green onions sliced, for garnish

Method
 

Prepare the Sauce
  1. In a bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, apple cider vinegar, and sesame oil until well combined.
Cook the Chicken
  1. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the Sauce
  1. Pour the honey garlic sauce over the chicken in the skillet. Stir to coat the chicken evenly.
Simmer
  1. Reduce heat to medium-low and let the chicken simmer in the sauce for an additional 10-15 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce thickens.
Serve
  1. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving. Enjoy your honey garlic chicken with rice or vegetables.
