Anytime I can get dinner ready and on the table in under 30 minutes, I consider that s mom win. Don’t get me wrong, I love to cook but finding the time to do it with our busy schedules can be just plain hard sometimes. Thankfully this Honey Garlic Chicken is a dish that I can count on to be a tasty dinner the entire family will love and ready in under 30 minutes. 

I do everything I can to eat out less and cook more dinners at home. Meal planning helps a ton but meals that are quick, use simple ingredients and are mouthwateringly delicious, are the ones I love most.

This Honey Garlic chicken is all of that and more. It’s full of flavor in every bite and thanks to PERDUE® FRESH CUTS™, I save even more time in the kitchen by cutting back on the prep work.

PERDUE® understands busy parents and that our time is precious and that’s why I love PERDUE^® FRESH CUTS^TM chicken.  By cutting back on the meal preparation and cleaning time, I can help save up to 30 minutes on dinners.

The fresh boneless, skinless chicken breasts come diced or cut into strips so you can skip the hassle of cleaning and cutting up the chicken. Instead you can just add them straight from the package to the pan without having to touch any raw meat.

PERDUE® FRESH CUTS™ chicken makes the perfect dinner choice for busy parents like me who still want to make sure their families enjoy a nutritious, home-cooked meal. Even better? PERDUE^® chicken is raised entirely without antibiotics and comes with the “No Antibiotics Ever” promise.

Now with dinner on the table in less time, I can spend that time watching one more episode of our favorite shows before bed or we can play a few more rounds of our favorite board game. Whatever we decided to do, less time in the kitchen means more time creating memories.

For this recipe, the sauce is probably one of my favorite parts of this dish. It’s simple to make and only requires a few ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen. Fresh garlic, salt, pepper, lemon juice, olive oil, honey and some soy sauce.

In a large pan heat two tablespoons of butter and add the PERDUE® FRESH CUTS™ chicken and season with salt and pepper.

Cook 3-5 minutes on each side on medium to high heat to sear the chicken and remove from pan.

In a small bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, olive oil and garlic and whisk together. Pour over chicken and cook until sauce thickens and chicken is cooked through.

Serve over rice and with your favorite veggies for a delicious dinner any night of the week.
