Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel and season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
In a large skillet, melt half of the butter over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the chopped parsley, thyme, and lemon juice.
Return the chicken to the skillet and spoon the buttery garlic sauce generously over it. Allow the chicken to simmer for a couple of minutes to soak in the flavor.
Serve the Cowboy Butter Chicken hot, garnished with extra parsley if desired. Pair your Cowboy Butter Chicken with fluffy rice, pasta, roasted vegetables, or a light salad. For a comforting vibe, consider serving it with mashed potatoes or buttery corn on the cob. And don’t forget a crisp white wine; it’ll make the buttery notes shine even brighter!
