Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless chicken breasts (use chicken wings if you prefer)
  • 6 tbsp honey
  • 5 tbsp hot pepper sauce (adjust based on your spice preference)
  • 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • freshly ground black pepper (according to taste)
  • salt (according to taste)

Equipment

  • 1 Large skillet for cooking your chicken
  • Plastic Wrap to pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness
  • 1 Meat Mallet or Rolling Pin for flattening the chicken
  • 1 Mixing bowl to combine your honey hot sauce ingredients
  • Kitchen Towels for drying the chicken
  • Tongs or Spatula to handle the chicken while cooking
  • Cutting Board and Knife for slicing the cooked chicken
  • Serving Dish to present your flavorful creation

Method
 

  1. Place each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and use a meat mallet or rolling pin to flatten them to about ¼ to ½ inch thickness. This helps them cook evenly and absorb the sauce better.
  2. Remove the plastic wrap and season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  3. Mix the honey, hot pepper sauce, and lemon juice together in a small bowl. Stir until well combined.
  4. Taste and make any necessary adjustments to the ingredients.

Notes

  • Balance the Flavors: Adjust the amount of honey and hot sauce based on your taste preferences. A little more honey will enhance the sweetness, while extra hot sauce will turn up the heat!
  • Serve on the Side: If you prefer to keep the sauce separate, serve it in a small bowl alongside the chicken for dipping.
