Making Honey Garlic Chicken is simple if you follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Sauce: In a mixing bowl, combine the honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and ginger (if using). Set aside.
2. Prepare Chicken: Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and pepper.
3. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once heated, add the chicken pieces.
