20-Min Honey Butter Chicken Recipe You’ll Make on Repeat!

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Make shallow cuts across each chicken thigh about 1 inch apart, without cutting all the way through. Season both sides with salt and white pepper, then lightly coat with cornstarch and dust off the excess.
  2. Heat the cooking oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Place the chicken skin-side down and cook about 4 minutes until golden brown, then flip and cook another 4 minutes. Remove from the pan.
  3. In the same pan over medium heat, add the butter, garlic, soy sauce, honey, brown sugar and chicken stock. Stir until combined.
  4. Return the chicken to the pan and simmer about 5 minutes, spooning the sauce over the chicken occasionally, until glossy and sticky.
  5. Slice the chicken and spoon the extra sauce over the top before serving.
