Lemon Garlic Pan Seared Chicken
Savor the zesty brightness of lemon paired with the aromatic warmth of garlic in this perfectly pan-seared chicken dish. The tender, juicy chicken breast is seared to golden perfection in olive oil, then brightened with a splash of lemon juice and a sprinkle of fresh parsley, creating a satisfying and lean meal that is both vibrant and nourishing.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Chicken Breast
1 tablespoon Olive Oil
1 medium Lemon
2 Garlic Cloves
2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and sear for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is cooking, mince the garlic cloves finely and squeeze the juice from the lemon.
Once the chicken is almost done, add the minced garlic to the pan, allowing it to bloom in the remaining oil for about 30 seconds.
Drizzle the lemon juice over the chicken and toss gently to coat, then remove the pan from heat.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately, enjoying the balanced flavors of zesty lemon and aromatic garlic.
