Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and black pepper. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Mince the Garlic

    Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.

  3. 3

    Chop the Green Onions

    Chop the green onions, separating the green tops from the white parts.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until they are browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 5

    Make the Garlic Sauce

    In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add the soy sauce, honey, and water, stirring to combine.

  3. 6

    Thicken the Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water to create a slurry. Slowly add this to the skillet while stirring to thicken the sauce.

  4. 7

    Combine and Serve

    Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, stirring to coat it in the garlic sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, then garnish with chopped green onion tops before serving.
