Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter
  • 2 tsp honey
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ¼ cup chicken broth
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, mix butter, honey, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken breasts 5–6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through, reaching 165°F. Remove and set aside.
  • Deglaze the skillet with chicken broth, scraping up browned bits. Stir in the butter mixture until smooth and slightly thickened.
  • Return chicken to the skillet, turning to coat. Simmer 2–3 minutes to blend flavors.
  • Sprinkle with parsley and serve warm, spooning extra sauce over the top.
