Categories     Chicken     Low Carb

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 TBS. Olive Oil
3/4 lbs. Raw Chicken (they recommend boneless, skinless chicken breast)
1 1/2 tsp. Lemon Zest
1 TBS. Fresh Squeezed Lemon Juice
1 TBS. Chopped Green Onions
1 TBS. Heavy Cream
1 TBS. Water
1 TBS. Sour Cream

Steps:

  • Season chicken with salt and black pepper. Heat pan to high temperature, then add oil and chicken pieces (do not overcrowd pan). Sauté until all pieces are well browned on all sides. Drain and discard any excess grease. Reduce heat to medium, add onion and lemon zest, and cook for one more minute. Mix lemon juice with water, cream and sour cream, and add to pan. Continue to heat over medium heat, stirring often, until the chicken is cooked through and sauce is proper consistency, about 10 mins. for boneless breast (longer if you uses larger pieces with bones). Delicious over a bed of cabbage noodles, or low carb pasta, or all by itself.
