Make the Sauce

Reduce heat slightly to medium-high.

Move chicken slightly to the side, then add garlic and the remaining butter.

Stir garlic briefly until butter melts.

Add vinegar, soy sauce, and honey, then stir or shake the pan to combine.

Bring sauce to a simmer and let it cook for about 1 minute until slightly thickened.

Coat and Serve

Turn the chicken to coat it evenly in the sauce.

If the sauce gets too thick, add a little water and stir.

Remove from the stove immediately and serve on plates.

Drizzle any remaining sauce over the chicken before serving.
