Ingredients
- 4 chicken breast boneless skinless
- 1 Tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 3 Tablespoons butter unsalted
- 1 Tablespoon garlic minced
- 2 teaspoons parsley optional, fresh
Instructions
- Pound the chicken breasts to make them roughly the same size. Pat them dry, then season them with the Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Place the chicken breasts into the skillet on olive oil. Sear the chicken breasts on one side for 5-6 minutes until browned (do not move the chicken during this time). Then flip and sear the opposite sides of the chicken for 5-6 minutes until browned and cooked through (do not move the chicken during this time).
- Remove the chicken from the pan to a separate plate.
- Turn the heat to thigh and deglaze the bottom of the skillet with the chicken broth.
- Turn the heat down to medium. Add in the butter and heat until melted. Stir in the minced garlic and cook until aromatic (approximately 1 minute).
- Turn the heat off on the skillet. Add the chicken back to the skillet and flip it around in the garlic butter sauce to coat the chicken with the sauce.
- Top the chicken with the fresh parsley and serve while warm. Enjoy!
Notes
- Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
