Zubereitung von The Home Ranch's Honey Pecan Chicken

**Make the Sauce:** Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Add 1/4 cup finely chopped shallots and cook for 3 minutes, or until softened but not browned.
Pour in 1/2 cup orange juice and 1/4 cup bourbon. Increase heat to medium-high and simmer until the liquid is reduced by half (about 5-7 minutes).
Stir in 1/2 cup heavy cream and reduce heat to low. Simmer until the sauce slightly thickens (about 2-3 minutes).
Add 1/4 cup honey, 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar, and season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
**If needed:** To thicken the sauce further, whisk together 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 2 tablespoons cold water to form a slurry. Slowly whisk the slurry into the sauce until it reaches your desired consistency.
**Prepare the Chicken:** In a shallow dish, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1 cup crushed pecans, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
Dredge each chicken breast in the flour mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).
**Serve:** Spoon the honey bourbon sauce onto each plate. Place a chicken breast in the center and drizzle with extra sauce, if desired. Serve immediately.
