- Instructions
- 1. Preheat Your Cooking Space: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or prepare your grill if cooking outdoors.
- 2. Season the Chicken: Generously sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of the chicken breasts.
- 3. Sear the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil until shimmering. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and sear for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- 4. Add the Sauce: Drizzle the hot honey over each chicken breast while they are still in the pan, allowing it to soak into every nook.
- 5. Bake It Up: Transfer the skillet (if oven-safe) or place the chicken in an oven-safe dish. Bake for another 10-15 minutes until cooked through (165°F/75°C).
- 6. Serve with Style: Plate the chicken and drizzle with any remaining sauce from the pan. Garnish with chopped green onions if desired.
