Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Step 2
Season the chicken breasts on both sides with paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
Place the chicken breasts in the heated skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
Step 4
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
Step 5
Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, scraping the bottom of the pan to deglaze and release any browned bits.
Step 6
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, making sure they are nestled in the sauce.
Step 7
Cover the skillet with a lid and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Step 8
Sprinkle fresh parsley over the chicken before serving.
Step 9
Serve hot with a side of your choice, such as rice, pasta, or a light salad.
