- 1½ lb chicken breast sliced into 4 thinner pieces
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1½ tbsp hot honey (we used Mike’s Hot Honey)
- ¼ cup shelled pistachios
Prepare the spice blend: Mix the kosher salt, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, and chili powder in a small bowl.
Season the chicken: Sprinkle the spice blend over both sides of the chicken breasts, rubbing it in to coat evenly.
Heat the grill: Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high heat to ensure even cooking.
Cook the chicken: Grill the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Look for a beautiful sear with grill marks.
Finish with toppings: Transfer the chicken to a serving platter, drizzle with hot honey, and sprinkle chopped pistachios on top for that final crunch.
