Instructions

1. Slice the chicken breasts into halves, resulting in 4 thinner pieces to work with.
2. To make Chicken Filling: Combine the tabasco, peanuts, onion, parsley, garlic, peanut butter, pepper, and soy sauce in a bowl and stir well.
3. Spread across on the inner sides of each chicken breast. Fold in half and secure with a small skewer.
4. To make Sauce: In a separate bowl, mix the chicken broth, soy sauce, melted butter, honey, and cornstarch until well combined.
5. Heat olive oil in a pan before adding the stuffed chicken breast pieces. Sear until golden brown on each side. Set aside.
6. Add broth mixture to the same pan and simmer until it reduces by half. This would take about 15 minutes.
7. Add chicken pieces back into the sauce and cook for another 5 to 8 minutes or until chicken is cooked through but still tender.
8. Remove the chicken and continue to reduce sauce until nicely thickened.
9. Remove skewers from the chicken and serve with the sauce. Garnish with chopped spring onions and Enjoy!
