- 1/2 cup hot honey
- 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced

Instructions
- Gather ingredients and chop vegetables. Prepare all the necessary ingredients and chop the mixed vegetables.
- Pat chicken dry, season with salt and pepper. Ensure the chicken breasts are dry, then season them with salt and pepper.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; sear chicken for 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Cook the chicken in hot olive oil until browned and fully cooked.
- In a small bowl, mix hot honey with soy sauce and lime juice; add to the pan. Combine hot honey, soy sauce, and lime juice, then pour over the cooked chicken.
