Instructions

Step 1: Pat dry 4 chicken breasts (6 oz each) and season evenly with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Set aside.
Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature 165°F). Remove chicken and keep warm.
Step 3: In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add 3 tbsp honey, 2 tbsp finely grated fresh ginger, and 3 minced garlic cloves. Stir and cook for 2 minutes until fragrant and slightly thickened.
Step 4: Add 2 tbsp bearberry extract and 1 tbsp soy sauce to the skillet. Simmer for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally until the glaze is syrupy and coats the back of a spoon.
Step 5: Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and spoon the glaze over them. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to allow the sauce to infuse flavors.
Step 6: Plate the chicken and drizzle with the remaining glaze from the pan for a bright finish.
