    Need a twenty minute meal on a busy weeknight? Panko Chicken with Grapefruit Honey Sauce is the answer. Sounds fancy, right? Your family will think this is special occasion, but it's easy peasy lemon squeezy! You can whip this up in no time, have an awesome dinner and still be at the soccer field on time.

    Panko crusted chicken breasy with grapefruit honey sauce on a plate with brussels sprouts.

    This Panko chicken with grapefruit honey sauce recipe comes from one of my favorite cookbooks, Mark Bittman's "Kitchen Express". This book is sectioned off by seasons, and that's just one of the things I like about it. The best part? 20 minute meals. 🙂

    The sweetness of the honey, acidity of the grapefruit, and crunch of the panko is what really sets this apart. 

    Panko bread crumbs (these are the ones I buy) are Japanese bread crumbs and they are more course in texture than regular breadcrumbs. You should be able to find them by the regular bread crumbs at your local grocery store.

    Panko breaded chicken breast with grapefruit honey sauce served with slices of grapefruit and roasted brussels sprouts.
