  • Mix well- it won't completely come together yet, so don't worry if the honey is too thick.

Notes

  • To use this honey garlic sauce as a glaze, add the protein while the sauce is thickening. This will let the sauce thicken into a delicious, sticky glaze!
  • Apple cider vinegar is the perfect choice for this sauce, but you can also use rice vinegar or white vinegar. If you use white vinegar, you might want to add a little extra honey or a pinch of sugar to balance out the acidity.
  • If you're sensitive to raw garlic, add it to the pan with a little butter early, and saute it for a few minutes before adding in the rest of the sauce ingredients.
  • This simple base is begging to be customized! Add a teaspoon of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick, or a splash of chili oil for a bit of fire!
  • For a bit of extra freshness, you can add sliced green onions.
  • You can serve this sauce over almost anything. Use it as a glaze for honey garlic chicken wings, or drizzle it over a dish of pork tenderloin and green beans. It is so versatile!
