Description
A comforting and quick weeknight dinner made with honey, garlic, and chicken, perfect for busy families.
Ingredients
Scale
- Chicken pieces (thighs or breasts work best)
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2–3 cloves of garlic, minced

Notes
For a zesty kick, add lime juice or toss in some steamed vegetables during cooking. This dish can be made ahead by marinating the chicken for deeper flavor.
