A delightful chicken recipe with a zesty honey glaze, perfect for a quick and flavorful meal.
Combine the ground cumin, dried sage, ground ginger, black pepper, and sea salt in a small bowl.
Mixing the spices thoroughly ensures an even coating on the chicken.
Rub the spice mix evenly over the chicken breasts. Slice the chicken into strips about half an inch wide.
Cutting the chicken into uniform strips helps it cook evenly.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil. Swirl to coat the bottom of the skillet.
Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the chicken to achieve a good sear.
Add the chicken strips to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are nearly cooked through, about 3 to 5 minutes.
Avoid overcrowding the skillet to allow the chicken to brown properly.
In a small bowl, whisk together the juice of the lemon, honey, and soy sauce.
Whisking the glaze thoroughly ensures the ingredients are well combined.
Pour the glaze over the chicken in the skillet. Increase the heat to high and cook, stirring, until the chicken is fully cooked and the glaze has thickened, about 2 minutes.
Keep stirring to coat the chicken evenly with the glaze.
Serve the chicken strips hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired. Enjoy your meal!
Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
