Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
- 4 teaspoons all-purpose flour
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 teaspoons oil (vegetable or olive oil)
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon butter
Instructions
Prepare the Chicken: Lightly flatten the chicken breasts to an even thickness.
Dust each piece with flour and season with salt and pepper.
Cook the Chicken: Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Cook the chicken for about 5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and fully cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, add the chicken broth, minced garlic, lemon juice, and butter.
Stir and cook for about 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to combine and the sauce to slightly reduce.
Serve: Pour the lemon garlic sauce over the cooked chicken and serve immediately.
