Zutaten
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 oz each)
- 4 tablespoons butter, divided
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- ¼ cup chicken broth
- Juice of ½ lemon
Anleitung
- Prepare the chicken by patting the chicken breasts completely dry with paper towels, which helps them develop a beautiful golden crust when searing. Season both sides generously with salt, black pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning, pressing the seasonings into the meat so they adhere well.
- Pound the chicken to an even thickness of about ¾ inch using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Place the chicken between two pieces of plastic wrap or parchment paper before pounding to prevent splattering. This ensures the chicken cooks evenly and stays juicy throughout.
- Heat the skillet by placing a large skillet over medium-high heat and adding 2 tablespoons of butter. Allow the butter to melt and become foamy but not brown, swirling it around the pan to coat the bottom evenly.
- Sear the chicken by carefully placing the seasoned chicken breasts in the hot skillet without overcrowding. Cook for 6-7 minutes on the first side without moving them, allowing a golden-brown crust to form. Flip the chicken and cook for another 5-6 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Remove and rest the chicken by transferring it to a clean plate and tenting it loosely with aluminum foil to keep warm while you prepare the sauce. This resting period allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
- Make the garlic butter sauce by reducing the heat to medium and adding the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the same skillet. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and golden, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
- Deglaze the pan by pouring in the chicken broth and scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. These flavorful bits add incredible depth to your sauce. Let the liquid simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.
- Finish the sauce by stirring in the lemon juice and fresh chopped parsley, swirling the pan to combine everything into a silky, aromatic sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
- Serve immediately by returning the chicken breasts to the skillet and spooning the garlic butter sauce over the top, or plate the chicken and drizzle the sauce generously over each piece. Serve with keto-friendly sides like cauliflower rice, zucchini noodles, or roasted vegetables.
