Savory Seared Chicken
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 3 tablespoons ketchup
  • 3 tablespoons white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
1
Acquire the necessary components for preparation.
2
Preheat a large skillet over medium heat, allowing oil to warm up. Introduce the onion into the skillet and cook until it becomes transparent, taking around 3 to 4 minutes for this process.
3
Next, add the chicken to the skillet and cook until it develops a light brown color on both sides, approximately 1 to 2 minutes per side.
4
In a separate container, mix together ketchup, sugar, soy sauce, lemon juice, and pepper. Pour this mixture over the chicken in the skillet.
5
Bring the contents to a boil before gradually decreasing the heat.
6
Cover the skillet and continue cooking until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), indicated by a clear flow of juices and the absence of pink coloration in the center.
