Instructions
- Step 1: Pat dry 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (6 oz each) and season both sides with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
- Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the chicken breasts and sear for 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temp 165°F), then transfer to a plate.
- Step 3: Reduce heat to medium, add 2 minced garlic cloves to the skillet, and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant but not browned.
- Step 4: Pour in 1/3 cup orange juice, 2 tbsp lemon juice, and stir in 2 tbsp honey. Simmer for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the glaze thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
- Step 5: Stir in 1 tsp chopped fresh thyme, return chicken to the pan and spoon the glaze over it for 1 minute to warm through and absorb flavors.
- Step 6: Serve the chicken drizzled with the citrus glaze.
