Ingredients

• 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 10 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 4 tablespoons Butter, unsalted
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 cup Chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Start by pounding the chicken breasts with a meat mallet until they are an even thickness for uniform cooking.

Step 2

Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt, pepper, and paprika.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat until the butter is melted and bubbling.

Step 4

Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken and set aside on a plate.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and the minced garlic. Stir constantly over medium heat for 1-2 minutes, or until the garlic is fragrant but not browned.

Step 6

Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, scrapping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet to enrich the sauce. Simmer the mixture for 3-4 minutes until slightly reduced.

Step 7

Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and spoon the garlic butter sauce over them. Allow the chicken to simmer in the sauce for an additional 5 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Step 8

Sprinkle the fresh parsley over the chicken and serve immediately with your choice of sides such as mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
