Season the chicken well with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Heat some butter in a pan and cook the chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.

Step 4

Once the chicken is done on both sides, add a bit more butter, minced garlic, soy sauce, vinegar, and honey to the pan. Stir everything together.

Let it cook for another 4-5 minutes so the sauce thickens and coats the chicken nicely.

Serve it up warm and enjoy!
