Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
1 cup flour
1 ½ tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 ¼ cups chicken stock
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 lemon, juiced
1 lemon, sliced
fresh parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • On a cutting board, cut the chicken breasts in half, widthwise.
  • Lay chicken flat and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Gently coat the chicken pieces in the flour, shaking off any excess.
  • Heat a skillet on medium-high heat and add the butter and oil, swirling together to coat the pan.
  • Place the chicken breasts into the pan and cook for 3-5 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Flip the chicken and cook the other side, another 3-5 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
  • Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  • Pour ¼ cup (60 ml) of the chicken stock in the pan and scrape up any bits that may have stuck to the bottom of the pan.
  • Add the rest of the stock and the cream and stir.
  • Season with salt and pepper, and add the lemon juice.
  • Simmer for 5 minutes. Add the chicken back to the pan and top with sliced lemons.
  • Spoon the sauce over the chicken.
  • Remove from heat. Sauce will thicken as it cools.
  • Serve with parsley and extra sauce.
  • Enjoy!
