Ingredients
Chicken and Sauce Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tbsp olive oil for cooking

Preparation
- In a small mixing bowl, combine butter, honey, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and set aside.
Cooking
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chicken breasts and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through (internal temp should be 165°F). Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.

Notes
Leftover Texas Roadhouse Butter Chicken Skillet can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, gently warm it on the stove or in the microwave, adding a splash of chicken broth if needed to maintain moisture. For even juicier chicken, consider marinating the chicken breasts in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and your favorite herbs for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
