Creating Garlic Butter Honey BBQ Chicken Tacos is a painless process when you follow these steps:
1. Prep the Chicken: Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and pepper.
2. Melt Butter: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
3. Cook the Chicken: Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until browned and cooked through.
