Categories     Chicken

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 Tbsp. flour
½ tsp. Salt
¼ tsp. Pepper
4 skinless, boneless chicken
breast halves (1 lb. Total)
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 medium onion
1 Tbsp. margarine
1 cup chicken broth
3 Tbsp. lemon juice
½ tsp. Thyme
Lemon wedges (optional)
2 Tbsp. chopped parsley
(optional)

Steps:

  • In a plastic or paper bag, combine the flour, salt and pepper and shake to mix. Add the chicken and shake to coat lightly. Remove the chicken and reserve the excess seasoned flour. In a large skillet, warm 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and brown on one side, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, turn the chicken and brown well on the second side, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside. Coarsely chop the onion. Add the margarine to the skillet. When the margarine melts, add the onion and cook. Stirring, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the reserved seasoned flour and cook, stirring, until the flour is completely incorporated, about 1 minute. Add the broth, 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice and they thyme and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. Return the chicken to the skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low and cover the skillet. Cook until the chicken is tender and opaque throughout, about 5 minutes. Divide the chicken among 4 plates. Stir the remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice into the sauce in the skillet and pour over the chicken. Serve the chicken with lemon wedges and a sprinkling of parsley, if desired.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I made a few changes. I used chicken thighs instead of breasts, and I added some vegetables to the sauce.

The sauce was too thin. I had to add some cornstarch to thicken it up.

The chicken was a bit dry. I think I overcooked it.

This recipe was a bit too lemony for my taste. I would recommend using less lemon juice next time.
