Creamy Lemon Butter Chicken

1.0

1½ lbs chicken breast (2 large breasts, sliced into 4 cutlets), lightly pounded to flatten out

½ tsp dried thyme

½ tsp dried oregano

½ tsp garlic powder

½ tsp paprika

1 tsp salt

½ tsp black pepper

1–2 tsp oil (to coat chicken before seasoning)

½ cup flour

2 eggs, beaten

¾ cup plain breadcrumbs

½ tsp dried thyme

½ tsp dried oregano

½ tsp garlic powder

½ tsp salt

½ tsp black pepper

1-2 tbsp neutral oil (for frying)

2 tbsp butter (for frying)

5 tbsp butter

4 garlic cloves, minced

Juice of 1 to 1½ lemons (about 3–4 tbsp)

1½ cups low-sodium chicken broth

1-2 tsp Dijon mustard, or to taste

½ cup heavy cream

Salt + pepper to taste

Optional: lemon zest + chopped parsley

Coat cutlets lightly with oil. Season both sides with thyme, oregano, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Set up 3 bowls: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs mixed with thyme, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Coat each cutlet: flour → egg → breadcrumbs.
Heat oil and butter in a skillet over medium heat. Pan-fry cutlets for 3–4 minutes per side until golden and cooked through (165°F). Transfer to a plate and cover loosely.
In the same pan, melt butter and sauté garlic for 30–60 seconds. Add lemon juice, chicken broth, and Dijon. Simmer 2–3 minutes. Stir in cream, season with salt and pepper, and simmer another 2–3 minutes until slightly thickened. Return chicken to the pan and spoon sauce over the top. Garnish if desired.
Serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted veggies. Don't forget to pour the lemon butter sauce over everything—it ties it all together!
