Honey Sweet Chili Chicken

Prep Time: 5 Minutes
Cook time: 15 Minutes
Serves: 3

Large Pan
Small Bowl

1 lb Chicken Tenderloins
1 Tbls Low Sodium Soy Sauce
1 1/2 Tbls Honey
1 1/2 Tbls Sweet Chili Sauce
1 Tbls Hoisin Sauce
1 Tbls Cooking Wine
1 Tsp Fresh Ginger (Grated)
1 Clove Garlic (Minced)
1 Tbls Olive Oil

Heat pan on Medium High heat with oil. Put the chicken into the pan and let it cook for about 1 minute on each side. Mix all of the remaining ingredients into a small bowl until fully blended, then drizzle over top of the chicken and reduce heat to medium. Let the chicken cook about 5 minutes on each side, watch closely so the sauce does not burn. The sauce should thicken up a bit creating a nice glaze over the chicken. Make sure to cook the chicken until it is fully done all the way through.

Serve with rice, noodles, or even on a salad.
