Instructions

  1. 1. In a small mixing bowl, combine the butter, honey, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and set aside.
  2. 2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through (internal temp should be 165°F). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  3. 3. In the same skillet, add chicken broth to deglaze the pan. Stir in the butter mixture and cook until smooth.
  4. 4. Return the chicken to the skillet and coat with the sauce. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  5. 5. Garnish with parsley and serve hot.
