Ingredients

2 Chicken - skinless, boneless
¼ cup Flour
½ tsp Salt
½ tsp Pepper
½ tsp Paprika
3 tbsp Olive Oil - divided
3 tsp Garlic
¾ cup Chicken Stock
3 tbsp Lemon Juice
3 tbsp Honey
1 Lemon - sliced

Instructions

Prepare the chicken by slicing the breasts lengthwise to get four pieces of chicken.
In a shallow bowl, use a fork or a whisk to combine together the flour with the seasonings (paprika, salt, and pepper).
Next, heat two tablespoon of the olive oil in a large skillet on medium heat.
While the skillet is heating up, carefully dredge the first piece of chicken through the flour mixture, tap the excess flour off back into the bowl, and place the chicken breast into the skillet.
Repeat this process with the remaining chicken.
Cook the chicken until it is golden brown (about four to five minutes per side). Then place the chicken on a clean place.
While the chicken is cooking, combine together the chicken stock, honey, and lemon juice in a bowl.
Add the remaining oil to the warm skillet along with the garlic and saute for about two minutes or until fragrant.
Then add the remaining ingredients to the skillet ( combined stock, honey, lemon juice, along with the lemon slices).
Bring the skillet ingredients to a boil and then to a simmer for five minutes for the liquid to reduce.
Turn the stove down to low and add to the skillet the chicken that you previously cooked.
Cook the ingredients for about three minutes for the chicken to reheat and absorb the other ingredients before serving.
