Ingredients

2 (6 oz each), boneless and skinless chicken breasts
2 tbsp avocado oil
1 tbsp, minced fresh ginger
2 cloves, minced garlic
3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/4 tsp sea salt

Instructions

Step 1: Pat chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Season both sides with 1/4 tsp sea salt. Heat 2 tbsp avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Step 2: Add chicken breasts and cook undisturbed for 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove chicken and set aside.
Step 3: Reduce heat to medium. Add 1 tbsp minced fresh ginger and 2 minced garlic cloves to the skillet, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in 3 tbsp fresh lemon juice, 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth, and 1/2 tsp dried thyme. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3 minutes to reduce slightly.
Step 4: Return chicken to the skillet, coating evenly with sauce. Cook for 2 more minutes to reheat. Stir in 1 tbsp chopped fresh dill, then serve immediately.
