Instructions

Step 1: Pat dry 4 chicken breasts (6 oz each) and season with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper evenly on both sides.
Step 2: Heat 3 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, then add the chicken breasts. Sear for 5-6 minutes on the first side without moving so a golden crust forms.
Step 3: Flip the chicken and cook the other side for 4-5 minutes until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Step 4: Remove chicken from skillet and set aside covered to keep warm. Lower heat to medium and add 3 minced garlic cloves, sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 5: Stir in 2 tbsp honey, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp Jamar red pepper flakes, and 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring until the glaze thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
Step 6: Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and spoon the glaze over them, cooking for another 1 minute to coat evenly.
Step 7: Serve the chicken topped with the spicy-sweet Jamar pepper glaze.
