Honey Garlic Chicken with Mushrooms 🍯🧄🍗🍄
🛒 Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)
2 cups mushrooms, sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tbsp olive oil or butter
1 tbsp cornstarch
2 tbsp water
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp paprika (optional)
Salt to taste
Chopped parsley or green onions (for garnish)
👨🍳 Instructions
Season the chicken
Sprinkle chicken with salt, pepper, and paprika.
Cook the chicken
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Cook chicken for about 5–6 minutes per side until golden and nearly cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Cook the mushrooms
In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 4–5 minutes until soft and browned.
Add garlic
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Make the sauce
Add honey and soy sauce to the skillet and stir well.
Thicken the sauce
Mix cornstarch with water, then pour into the skillet. Stir until the sauce begins to thicken.
Finish cooking
Return the chicken to the pan. Spoon the sauce and mushrooms over the chicken and simmer for 3–5 minutes until fully cooked and coated in the glaze.
Serve
Garnish with parsley or green onions and serve hot.
🍽️ Serving Ideas
Serve with steamed rice
Great with noodles or mashed potatoes
Add broccoli or green beans for a full meal
If you want, I can also give you a slow cooker version or a 30-minute one-pan creamy honey garlic chicken with mushrooms that tastes even richer. 😋
