For this recipe you will need the following ingredients.

  • 500 g of chicken.
  • 60 ml of soy sauce.
  • 30 g of acacia honey.
  1. To prepare this quick and easy recipe, you can choose whether to start with the whole breast and cut it yourself, or for a quicker solution, you can buy the chicken pieces already cut.
  2. Start marinating. In a bowl, place the soy sauce, honey (we recommend acacia honey as it does not have a strong flavor that could cover the other flavours) and the chicken. Marinate for 1 hour and 30 minutes.
  3. After that, take a non-stick pan and pour in a drizzle of oil. Pour the marinated chicken and honey-soy seasoning into the pan.
  4. Cook for 10 minutes , until the liquid has dried and the chicken has become caramelised. If your sauce runs out before 10 minutes, add a little more soy sauce.

If you like this combination of flavors, also try the chicken skewers with soy sauce : you won't regret it.
