Ingredients

4 skinless boneless chicken breast halves, about 1 1/4 pounds
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon honey or brown sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1 tablespoon ground coriander
2 teaspoons finely chopped garlic
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

Place the chicken in a mixing bowl. Add salt, pepper, soy sauce, honey, lemon juice, cumin, cayenne, turmeric, coriander and garlic. Blend well so that the pieces are well coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
Heat the oil in a skillet large enough to hold the pieces in one layer without crowding. Over medium heat, add the pieces of chicken and cook until browned on one side. Turn the pieces and reduce the heat to medium high. Cook until done. Total cooking time is about 10 minutes. After the pieces are cooked, transfer them to paper towels and keep them in a warm place. Serve hot.
