  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar

Instructions

Creating Easy Lazy Honey Garlic Chicken is straightforward. Just follow these simple steps for a guaranteed success:

  1. Prepare Chicken: Start by cutting the chicken into bite-sized pieces if using breasts. This allows for even cooking and complete coverage in the sauce.
  2. Make the Sauce: In a mixing bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and vinegar. Whisk them together until blended well.
  3. Preheat the Pan: Add a tablespoon of oil to a skillet and heat over medium-high heat.
  4. Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned on all sides.
  5. Pour in the Sauce: Once the chicken is browned, pour the honey garlic sauce over it. Stir to coat the chicken evenly.
  6. Simmer: Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes. This allows the chicken to absorb all the amazing flavors.
  7. Reduce Sauce (optional): If you prefer a thicker sauce, remove the chicken once cooked and let the sauce simmer for an additional 3-5 minutes until it thickens to your liking.
  8. Serve Hot: Remove from heat, and your Easy Lazy Honey Garlic Chicken is ready to enjoy.

Now that you've followed these steps, you have a delightful dish waiting for you!
