Cut chicken thigh fillets into thin strips and season.
In a nonstick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and saute the chicken for about 6-7 minutes, until golden brown on all sides.
Add the tomatoes and garlic, and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
In a bowl, mix the honey with the mustard and the lemon and pour the chicken.
