Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce

- 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of honey, 3 cloves of minced garlic, and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce. Set aside.
- Season the chicken breasts with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
