- Melt butter/ghee in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Season your chicken with sea salt and pepper on both sides, then saute until golden browned and juices run clear, about 4-5 minutes on each side.
- Remove your chicken from skillet, then set aside and cover.
- In that same preheated skillet, add crushed garlic cloves and saute for 1 minute, over medium, just until fragrant.
- Pour in your chicken broth and bring to a simmer, scraping all the brown bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon.
- Add in your honey, lemon juice + zest, and gluten free flour, then whisk briskly until the flour is well incorporated.
- Continue to simmer and stir until your sauce thickens a bit, then return chicken to your skillet and spoon some sauce on top.
- Cook another minute until just heated through.
- Remove from heat, and sprinkle with fresh chopped herbs.
- Serve with asparagus, green beans, or broccoli and quinoa or brown rice.
- Spoon sauce over everything, and enjoy...
