Ingredients

For Lemon Pepper Chicken

  • 2 Large Chicken Breasts, Boneless and Skinless
  • ¾ Cup All Purpose Flour
  • ½ Teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 2 Tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 3 Tablespoons Lemon Pepper Seasoning

For Lemon Pepper Sauce

  • 2 Tablespoons Salted Butter
  • ½ Cup Chicken Stock
  • 2 Garlic Cloves, Minced
  • 1 Large Sized Lemon, Squeezed
  • 1 Tablespoon Honey
  • ½ Teaspoon Lemon Zest
  • ½ Cup Parsley, Chopped

Instructions

  • Clean the chicken breasts and cut them into thinner halves, like cutlets
  • In a small bowl mix lemon pepper seasoning and the kosher salt. Place flour on a separate plate for coating. Season each side of the chicken breasts with the lemon pepper seasoning. Coat them with the flour. Shake off excess flour and put at rest on a wire rack
  • Heat extra virgin olive oil on a fry pan. Put the chicken breasts in the pan in a single layer. Fry the chicken breasts for 3 minutes then flip the other part and fry for another 2 minutes
  • Melt butter in a pan on medium heat. Add minced garlic and saute until fragrant. 30 seconds will be enough
  • Now add chicken stock, lemon juice, honey, and ½ teaspoon of lemon pepper seasoning to the pan. Boil for 2 minutes, check if salt or pepper is needed. Your lemon pepper sauce will be ready
  • Place the chicken breasts on the lemon pepper sauce. Coat both sides very well. Transfer them on the plate for serving. Garnish with chopped parsley and lemon slices
