Lemon Chicken

This recipe is from Confessions of a Fit Foodie. The quantities have been changed into metric, and salt removed. Each person can then add salt to their own taste.

Ingredients

20g butter

1 Tsp oil

4 boneless chicken breasts

120g flour (I use Dove Farm Gluten-free flour)

1/2 tsp garlic powder

pepper

120ml lemon juice

1 Tsp lemon zest

120ml chicken stock

1 lemon, sliced

Method

Mix together the flour, garlic powder, and pepper. Lightly coat each piece of chicken in the seasoned flour. Shake off excess.

Over a medium heat, melt the butter and mix in the oil. Brown the chicken on each side, and cook for 3 minutes on either side. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.

Deglaze the pan with the lemon juice and chicken stock. Return the chicken to the pan and top with lemon zest. Simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes. The sauce should thicken a bit. Top with lemon slices and simmer for 5 more minutes.
