Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1/3 cup chicken broth
  • 3 lemons
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 teaspoons garlic (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper

Instruction

  • Zest 2 of the lemons to get approximately 2 teaspoons of lemon zest.  Then juice the same 2 lemons to get approximately 4 tablespoons of lemon juice. 
  • Cut ends off of the 3rd lemon, then slice to get 4 full lemon slices to garnish the chicken breasts, as pictured.
  • Mix chicken broth, lemon juice, lemon zest, honey, garlic, Italian seasoning, and salt and pepper in a small bowl.
  • In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add chicken to the skillet and brown each side (about 2-3 minutes per side).
  • Place chicken in a buttered 9x13 casserole dish. Pour lemon sauce evenly over chicken. 
  • Place a lemon slice on top of each chicken breast.
  • Bake at 400 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Every 10 minutes, remove the chicken from the oven and spoon sauce over chicken. Internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees.
