This creamy lemon chicken is beyond delicious and easy for a quick weeknight dinner!<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

This is one of those dinners that’s perfect any day of the week. It’s quick and simple enough for a weeknight dinner, but it also works perfectly for a ‘special’ occasion. I’m confident you’re going to love it! Follow me…<\/p>\n

Preparing Creamy Lemon Chicken<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

We’ll be using a couple of chicken breasts and horizontally slicing them through the centre<\/strong> to create 4 even-sized breasts. This way you not only double the portions<\/strong>, but the chicken will also cook through quicker and more evenly<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Dredging through flour<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Dredging the meat through flour will ensure the chicken builds up a nice crust in the pan<\/strong>. In turn, that crust will help absorb the sauce<\/strong> and help it cling to the chicken<\/strong>. To season the flour I just go with a simple mix of salt, black pepper and garlic powder.<\/p>\n

Pan-frying the chicken<\/strong><\/h3>\n

I like frying the chicken in butter<\/strong> (for a rich flavour) and some oil<\/strong> (to help prevent the butter from burning). The chicken won\u2019t take long to cook and keep in mind it\u2019ll carry on cooking slightly as it rests and when it is basted in the sauce.<\/p>\n
