Texas Roadhouse Butter Chicken Skillet
A delightful dish featuring tender chicken breasts in a rich, buttery sauce, perfect for busy families and comfort food lovers.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter For the sauce
- 2 tsp honey
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley For garnish
Instructions
Preparation
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the butter, honey, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and set aside.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Cooking
- Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through (internal temperature should be 165°F). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add chicken broth to deglaze the pan. Stir in the butter mixture and cook until smooth.
- Return the chicken to the skillet and coat it with the sauce. Simmer for 2-3 minutes to absorb the flavors.
- Garnish with parsley and serve.
Notes
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after cooking for juicier meat. Adjust seasoning to your liking; add more honey for sweetness or spices for heat. Check the internal temperature of chicken with a meat thermometer.
