Herb-Crusted Pan Seared Chicken with Lemon Garlic Sauce
Savor the succulent, herb-crusted chicken breast, pan-seared to perfection and finished with a bright, zesty lemon garlic sauce. This dish offers a refreshing burst of fresh herbs and citrus that complements the tender chicken, making it ideal for a fulfilling meal any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
1/2 medium Lemon
1 clove Garlic
2 tablespoons Mixed Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Thyme)
Salt & Black Pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and season both sides lightly with salt and black pepper.
Finely chop the mixed fresh herbs and mince the garlic.
Lightly rub the chicken breast with half of the olive oil. Then, press the chopped herbs onto the chicken to form a crust.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breast.
Sear the chicken for about 4-5 minutes per side, ensuring a golden crust forms, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is cooking, combine the minced garlic with the juice of half a lemon in a small bowl. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
Once the chicken is done, remove it from the skillet. Deglaze the pan by adding the lemon garlic mixture, stirring to lift the flavorful browned bits, and let it simmer for about a minute.
Drizzle the lemon garlic sauce over the chicken and serve immediately, enjoying the bright citrus and herb-infused flavors.
