Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized cubes

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp black pepper

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/4 tsp paprika

1/4 cup unsalted butter (1/2 stick)

1/4 cup honey

3-4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbsp soy sauce (optional, for extra flavor)

Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Cooked rice or noodles (for serving, optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss the cubed chicken in the seasoned flour mixture until well coated.

    Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted, add the coated chicken pieces in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 5-6 minutes until golden brown, flipping halfway through. Remove the chicken and set aside.

      Make the Honey Butter Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low and add the remaining butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

        Combine Sauce Ingredients: Add the honey and soy sauce (if using) to the skillet. Stir to combine and let the mixture simmer for another 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.

          Toss Chicken in Sauce: Return the cooked chicken bites to the skillet. Toss gently in the honey butter garlic sauce until well coated and heated through, about 2-3 minutes.

            Serve: Remove the skillet from heat. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve alongside cooked rice or noodles, if desired. Enjoy!
