Weeknight Lemon Chicken Breasts With Herbs Recipes

Steps:

• Low-Sodium Recipe
• 1. Heat grill or a cast iron grill to medium heat. Spray with cooking spray.
• 2. Toss chicken breasts with olive oil, Mrs. Dash® Lemon Pepper Seasoning Blend, half of lemon juice and slivered garlic cloves.
• 3. Grill the chicken on both sides, turning at least three times to cook evenly.
• 4. Remove to a plate. Cover 3-4 minutes to let juices rest.
• 5. Squeeze other half of lemon on chicken.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Warm the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, add the garlic, and cook for just 1 minute but don't allow the garlic to turn brown. Off the heat, add the white wine, lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, and 1 teaspoon salt and pour into a 9 by 12-inch baking dish.
• Pat the chicken breasts dry and place them skin side up over the sauce. Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle them liberally with salt and pepper. Cut the lemon in 8 wedges and tuck it among the pieces of chicken.
• Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken breasts, until the chicken is done and the skin is lightly browned. If the chicken isn't browned enough, put it under the broiler for 2 minutes. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot with the pan juices.

Steps:

• Season the chicken breasts all over with the salt and pepper. Transfer the chicken to a gallon-size resealable freezer bag. Add 1/2 cup olive oil and the remaining ingredients, press out the air and seal the bag tightly so the chicken is fully submerged. Massage the chicken through the plastic bag to evenly distribute the herbs. Let marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour or up to 8 hours.
• In a large, deep skillet with a lid, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium. Remove the chicken from the marinade, add to the skillet, then pour the lemons and marinade on top. Cook until the chicken is golden on one side, about 8 minutes. Turn the chicken, cover and cook over medium-low until chicken is cooked through, about 7 minutes. Serve chicken topped with lemons and sauce.

Steps:

• Cut lemon in half, and squeeze juice from 1/2 lemon on chicken. Season with salt to taste. Let sit while you heat oil in a small skillet over medium low heat.
• When oil is hot, put chicken in skillet. As you saute chicken, add juice from other 1/2 lemon, pepper to taste, and oregano. Saute for 5 to 10 minutes each side, or until juices run clear. Serve with parsley for garnish.

Steps:

• Place an inch of flour on a plate and season with salt and pepper. Dredge the chicken breasts in the flour to lightly coat.
• Heat a 12-inch skillet, heat oil (1/4 inch) over medium-high heat until a pinch of flour sizzles when dropped in.
• When the oil is hot, add chicken breasts to the pan. Cook until the chicken is nicely brown on the first side, about 5 to 7 minutes, then turn and cook on the second side, about 5 to 7 minutes, lowering the heat a bit if the coating begins to scorch. Cook until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (165°F).
• When the chicken is done, remove to a plate and tent to keep warm. Add broth, lemon juice and parsley to the pan and cook, stirring until the liquid is reduced by half, about 1 to 2 minutes. Return the chicken breasts to the pan and turn to coat with the sauce.
• Slice the chicken breast and serve on a bed of rice and or spinach drizzled with a little more sauce.
