This lemon-herb chicken is a simple, quick, and delicious dish. All you need are a few herbs, a lemon, and of course, the chicken! The amount of spices is completely up to you. You can add more or less according to your taste.
Ingredient
2 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 medium lemon, juiced, divided
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pinch dried oregano
2 sprigs fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Direction
Place chicken in a bowl; pour 1/2 of the lemon juice over chicken and season with salt.
Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-low heat. Place chicken into hot oil. Add remaining lemon juice and oregano; season with black pepper. Cook chicken until golden brown and the juices run clear, 5 to 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
