This 5-ingredient, 15-minute honey garlic chicken with an addictively delicious sauce makes a perfect quick and easy weeknight dinner recipe! Show We are somehow back to Monday and this will be M’s first full, 5-day week of kindergarten. 😬 We’ve also got fall activities ramping up and both my husband and I have busy work schedules this time of year. So quick and easy is the name of the game most nights! (Though, yes, that’s pretty much always the case 😉 ) This honey garlic chicken recipe fits the bill – just 5 ingredients and 15 minutes are all you need to whip up this dinner. And just wait until you taste the sauce. Oh that sauce! I literally eat it from the pan with the spoon. I also drizzle it over everything on my plate – the chicken, the rice, the veggies… All of it gets coated in this delectable sauce. It’s got sticky sweet honey, the salty rich soy sauce, a kick of garlic and a hint of spice from the red pepper flakes. It gets glazed on to the chicken and simmered down and concentrated slightly so it’s ready to drip and drizzle all over your plate. Please, put it ALL over your plate! So freakin’ good! I also use this sauce in my slow cooker honey garlic chicken recipe, if you want to check that one out for a hands-off dinner you can start earlier in the day. 👍 Or try this Instant Pot honey garlic chicken for a different version. And sometimes I take this dinner a step further and make honey garlic chicken stir fry. It’s loaded with veggies and ready in about 25 minutes. But back to today’s recipe. Now, I’ve got some notes, tips and substitutions coming up below on how to make honey garlic chicken. Just tryin’ to be helpful.

Notes on making honey garlic chicken:
I use brown rice, which takes a little longer, so I get that started first then I prep my chicken and get it cooking. While the chicken is going, I get a veggie ready to steam (broccoli, green beans or snow peas usually – you could also use a steam-in-the-bag veggie) and dinner is ready and on the table in no time! You could also keep it low-carb and serve it with some of my easy cauliflower rice. Or serve over quinoa or some rice noodles or a long, thin noodle like angel hair. Anything to sop up more of that sauce! Want some topping ideas? You know I’m all about it. Toppings for honey garlic chicken:

NotesTip: Be careful not to overcook the chicken. The pieces are small so they cook fast, which is kinda the point with this dinner. But you don’t want them to go too far and be overdone. On the other hand, that sauce is seriously so good, it’ll disguise your chicken if it gets a little overdone. You could substitute boneless, skinless chicken thighs in place of the chicken breasts if you prefer, but the cooking time might be a little longer. I do use and recommend low-sodium soy sauce so you can control the amount of sodium in this recipe. You could also substitute a gluten-free tamari if you need this recipe to be gluten-free. For serving: To make a complete meal, just add some steamed rice and a veggie. Or serve this over quinoa, cauliflower rice or a thin noodle. Leftovers, once cooled, can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat in the microwave or in a skillet on the stove until warmed through.
