Garlic Butter Chicken

 

Ingredients:

  • 4 8-oz Boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tsp Sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp Black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Dried thyme leaves
  • 1/2 tsp Dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp Dried rosemary
  • 1/2 tsp Dried parsley
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 3 tbsp Unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup Chicken broth, reduced sodium
  • 5 cloves Garlic (minced)

Instructions:

  1. Tap on the times in the instructions below to start a kitchen timer while you cook.
  2. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt, pepper, and dried herbs.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet (preferably stainless like this one) over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in a single layer and sear for 4-8 minutes per side, until golden and just barely cooked through. (Reduce heat to medium if it starts to brown too much.) Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
  4. Add the butter and chicken broth to the pan. As the butter melts, scrape the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to deglaze.
  5. Reduce heat to low. Add the garlic and saute for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
  6. Return the chicken to the pan. Flip once or twice to coat in sauce. If needed, heat for 1-2 minutes, until warm.
  7. Serve garlic butter chicken with the pan juices spooned over it.
