Lemon Garlic Chicken Recipe

Level:
Easy

Prep:
15 min

Cook:
25 min

Yield:
4 Servings

Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1/4 cup olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup mixed herbs (parsley, rosemary, thyme)

1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 cup chicken broth

2 tbsp butter

Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.

Heat 2 tbsp of butter in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

Remove the skillet from the oven and sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the chicken. Return to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. Garnish with fresh herbs and a lemon wedge, if desired.

Storage & Reheating

Refrigerate or freeze leftover chicken for up to 3-5 days. Reheat in the oven or on the stovetop with a little added liquid until heated through. Enjoy!
