Honey Garlic Chicken with Mushrooms
Ingredients
2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (sliced thin)
1 cup mushrooms (sliced)
2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp soy sauce
3 cloves garlic (minced)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp butter
Salt & black pepper to taste
Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the Chicken
Slice chicken breasts into thin cutlets for quicker, even cooking.
Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
2️⃣ Make the Sauce
In a small bowl, mix together:
Honey
Soy sauce
Minced garlic
Stir well and set aside.
3️⃣ Cook the Chicken
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add chicken slices in a single layer.
Cook for about 3–4 minutes per side, until golden and fully cooked through.
Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.
4️⃣ Sauté the Mushrooms
In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium.
Add butter and let it melt.
Add sliced mushrooms and cook for 4–5 minutes until soft and lightly browned.
5️⃣ Combine & Simmer
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet.
Pour the honey garlic sauce over everything.
Let it simmer for 2–3 minutes, spooning sauce over the chicken as it thickens and becomes glossy.
