Been awhile since I've done an Aaron and Claire recipe and they've had a Honey Garlic chicken dish on their site that I have been itching to try: https://aaronandclaire.com/honey-garlic-chicken/
I followed the recipe essentially verbatim except I doubled it and substituted agave nectar for honey, which, while I prefer the taste of honey, agave nectar is just so much easier to work with.
I got the chicken going in the marinade and then after twenty minutes seared the heck out of it in a cast iron pan. I, once again because I never learn, came close to overcrowding the pan, but I had that burner on stupidly high heat, which mitigated any steaming threat.
Once the chicken is done, you remove it and then let the heat reduce a bit, then add in some butter, green onions, and garlic. I used an entire head of minced garlic because this is garlic chicken after all. Once the garlic is golden, you pour in the rest of the sauce ingredients -- soy sauce, oyster sauce, pepper, miren, agave/honey, cornstarch, and chicken boillion -- and let that thicken.
Then add the chicken back in and heat through.
I plated it up with some rice and steamed brocolli.
Very good and quite garlicky. I think I will try it with actual honey next time as the agave nectar, while very good, was just a bit too sharp on the sweetness.
And what I will probably also do is grill the chicken to get some nice char on it.

fzxdoc a little mayo added just before searing really helps with browning.

“Secret Breakfast” - Vanilla, cornflakes & bourbon. My take on the classic Humphrey Slocombe flavor…for you Bay Area residents. This is one of the best ice creams I’ve made. Super rich - you can see the vanilla seeds, the clusters of cornflake are perfect - crunchy AND chewy, and the bourbon finish! My goodness, heaven.

A simple yet delicious dinner to wrap up the workweek. A burger over charcoal dressed to my liking, grilled romaine, and some frozen onion rings that a random guy I met on the internet told me to buy. DaveD I never buy frozen onion rings because they always blow, but for frozen???? These definitely take the cake.
My highly-regarded seal of approval.
