Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup honey (for the sweet element)
- 2 tablespoons hot sauce or sriracha (for the spicy kick)
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese (for that creamy, salty flavor)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs like parsley or basil for garnish
Instructions
- Pat the chicken breasts dry and season with salt, pepper, and paprika.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and sear for 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
- Whisk together honey and hot sauce in a small bowl. Pour over the cooked chicken in the skillet.
- Reduce heat to low, add minced garlic and crumbled feta. Gently stir and let simmer for 2-3 minutes until flavors meld and sauce is luscious.
- Sprinkle with chopped herbs like parsley or basil before serving for added freshness.
Notes
- Use fresh feta for optimal flavor and texture.
- Adjust the spiciness by varying the hot sauce amount.
- Serve with steamed vegetables, rice, or quinoa for a complete meal.
- This dish can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently to preserve the flavors.
