extra flair.
Serving Suggestions

In Wraps: Roll in lettuce leaves or tortillas for a sweet-savory wrap.

Pro Tips for Success
Don’t overcrowd the pan – Cook chicken in batches if needed for better browning.
Adjust sweetness – Reduce honey if you prefer a less sweet glaze.
Add heat – A pinch of red chili flakes or sriracha transforms it into a sweet-spicy version.
Make it sticky – Let the glaze bubble for an extra minute for a thicker, clingier coating.
