Equipment

  • Cast Iron Skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Chicken Can use boneless, skinless breast or thighs, whatever you have on hand!
  • 2.5 tbsp Mike's Hot Honey If you don't have Mike's hot, try using regular honey+ 1 tsp of hot sauce.
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1.5 tbsp apple cider vinegar you can also use any white vinegar.
  • 3 tbsp butter I like Kerry Gold

Instructions
 

  • Cut chicken into large chunks. Don't make too small, or they will dry out (and probably avoid using tenders). Season with salt & pepper.
  • Heat 1 tbsp of the butter in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.
  • When butter has melted, and starts to bubble, add the chicken in.
  • Toss chicken in pan after about 2 minutes, allowing all sides to be white. Then add in all of the remaining ingredients. Let cook over medium-high heat until the sauce has cooked off almost completely.
  • When sauce has reduced almost completely, toss chicken again so that it gets completely coated, and is a deep honey brown. Remove from heat and serve immediately.
