Ingredients

  • cup all-purpose flour

  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

  • 10 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into strips

  • 1 tablespoon butter

  • 2 tablespoons lime juice

  • 2 tablespoons honey

  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar

  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Directions

  1. Combine flour and cayenne pepper in a large resealable plastic bag. Add a few chicken strips at a time and shake to coat.

  2. Melt butter in a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until browned on all sides, 4 to 6 minutes.

  3. Combine lime juice, honey, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl; pour over the chicken. Continue to cook until juices run clear and the sauce is thickened, 3 to 5 more minutes.

Cook's Note:

I have also made this without cutting the chicken into strips by increasing the cook time in Step 2 to around 20 minutes.

This recipe also double and triples very well.
