Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 6 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound them with a meat mallet to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.
In a small bowl, combine the salt, pepper, and paprika. Season both sides of the chicken breasts evenly with the spice mixture.
In a large ovenproof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet in a single layer and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Pour the chicken broth and lemon juice into the skillet around the chicken.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Remove the skillet from the oven and sprinkle the chicken with chopped parsley.
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve hot, spooning some of the pan juices over the chicken.
