To Make Healthy Honey Lemon Chicken

A recipe can not be easier than this. It takes literally 15 mins to make. There is barely any preparation apart from mincing garlic and cutting the chicken into small pieces(if you have whole chicken breast).

Start with quickly stir-frying the salt and pepper chicken on high heat for 2-3 minutes. When you see small brown spots appearing, remove it from the pan. It’s ok if chicken pieces are not cooked completely. It will cook further when added back to a hot honey lemon sauce.

Add minced garlic and cook until aromatic. Then stir in rest of the ingredients to the pan, let it cook until the sauce is thick and coats back of the spoon. Then to the thicken up sauce add brown chicken pieces and cook for another minute. And you are done.

To make it more filling, you can add some blanched broccoli or sauteed asparagus on the side while serving.
