Instructions
Creating Honey Glazed Chicken with Golden Beet Salsa can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel and season with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. Make the Honey Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, and Dijon mustard.
3. Sear the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear it for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
4. Add the Glaze: Pour the honey mixture over the chicken, coating it evenly.
5. Bake: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
6. Prepare the Salsa: While the chicken is baking, combine the roasted golden beets, red onion, cilantro, and lime juice in a bowl. Mix well and season with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Serve: Once the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Slice the chicken and top it with the vibrant beet salsa.
8. Garnish and Enjoy: Garnish with additional cilantro if desired and serve.
