Honey Garlic Chicken with Asparagus
Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 lb fresh asparagus, trimmed
2 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp honey
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Directions
Season the chicken: Sprinkle chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
Sear the chicken: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (165°F internal temp). Remove from skillet and set aside.
Prepare the honey garlic sauce: In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil, minced garlic, honey, soy sauce, and lemon juice. Stir and simmer for 2 minutes until slightly thickened.
Cook the asparagus: Add the asparagus to the skillet and toss in the sauce. Cook for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp.
Combine: Return the chicken to the skillet, spoon the sauce over it, and cook for 1-2 minutes to heat through.
Serve: Plate the chicken with asparagus, garnish with fresh parsley, and enjoy!
