Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and black pepper until well combined.

For best results, pat the chicken dry before searing. Marinating the chicken for a few hours can enhance the flavors. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days.
