Honey Garlic Sauce

This flavorful sauce can add an amazing, additional layer of flavor to your baked pork or chicken dishes; just remember, a LITTLE goes a long way.  Can be thickened, if desired.

  • 1 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp. fresh, minced garlic
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 3 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. soy sauce (or Liquid Aminos)
  • 1/4 cup honey (reduce amount for less sweet--I use 2 Tbsp.)
To a 1-quart saucepan over medium heat, add 1 Tbsp. olive oil.  Allow to heat for 2-3 minutes.  Add minced garlic to heated oil.  Cook and stir oil & garlic mixture for 1-2 minutes, being careful not to burn the garlic.  Reduce heat to low.  Add remaining ingredients at once, cook on low, stirring occasionally.  Heating on low for 10-15 minutes to blend flavors and reduce a bit.

Once you have made this sauce, you may want to adjust the ingredients to your taste--very easy to do--by adding or subtracting 1-2 teaspoons at a time.  Refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 weeks.

You might want to double or triple the recipe--each recipe only makes about 1/2 cup finished.
