Préparation

  1. Marinate the chicken

    • Coat the chicken thighs with the oil, garlic powder, onion powder, cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, Italian seasoning and black pepper.
    • Let marinate for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour.
    Étape 1

  2. Sear the chicken

    • Heat a pan over medium-high heat and drizzle in a little oil.
    • Cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side, then remove from the pan.
    Étape 2

  3. Make the honey butter and baste the chicken

    • Lower the heat in the same pan and add the unsalted butter and honey.
    • Once it starts to simmer, return the chicken and baste it in the sauce until fully coated.
    • Set the chicken aside and drizzle most of the honey butter on top, keeping a little in the pan for the vegetables.
    Étape 3

  4. Sauté the vegetables

    • Turn the heat up to medium and add the diced onion, diced peppers and garlic.
    • Sauté until softened, then add the tomato paste.
    • Cook until the tomato paste slightly darkens.
    Étape 4

  5. Toast the orzo
