Step-by-Step Instructions
Preparing the Spicy Honey Pepper Chicken
- Season the Chicken:
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides. Set aside.
- Make the Honey Pepper Glaze:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, sriracha sauce, crushed red pepper flakes, minced garlic, and ground black pepper.
- Cook the Chicken:
- Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the butter is melted and sizzling, add the seasoned chicken breasts. Cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- Prepare the Glaze:
- In the same skillet, pour in the honey pepper mixture. Bring it to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes until it starts to thicken slightly.
- Thicken the Sauce:
- In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Add the slurry to the skillet, stirring constantly, until the glaze thickens to your desired consistency.
- Coat the Chicken:
- Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, turning to coat them thoroughly in the spicy honey pepper glaze. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, ensuring the chicken is well coated and heated through.
