Ingredients

4 servings

1 pound boneless skinless chicken thighs (or chicken breast cutlets)
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
5 tablespoons salted butter (divided)
3 cloves garlic (minced)
¼ cup honey
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon orange juice
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard

Steps

Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
Heat oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken thighs in batches and cook for 4 minutes per side or until cooked through. Transfer to a bowl to keep warm.
Reduce the heat to medium and add 1 tablespoon of the butter and the garlic. Cook just until fragrant.
Stir in the remaining butter, honey, soy sauce, orange juice, and Dijon mustard. Simmer uncovered for 3-5 minutes or until slightly thickened.
Add the chicken with any juices back to the skillet and cook 1 to 2 minutes more or until heated through.
Serve the sauce over the chicken.
