Instructions

  1. Step 1: Pat dry 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts and season both sides evenly with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
  2. Step 2: Heat 3 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through, about 165°F internal temperature.
  3. Step 3: Remove the chicken and set aside on a plate. Lower the heat to medium and add 4 minced garlic cloves and 2 sprigs of finely chopped fresh rosemary to the skillet, sautéing for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Step 4: Pour in 1/4 cup chicken broth and 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice, stirring and scraping up any browned bits from the pan. Let the sauce simmer and reduce for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
  5. Step 5: Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and spoon the sauce over them. Cook for 1-2 more minutes to reheat and meld flavors before serving.
