Garlic Lemon Chicken

When it comes to time management and cooking chicken, I seem to be on a roll. Here is another recipe that took very little time to make, has few ingredients, and tastes like it was ordered at a fine dining restaurant. I seem to have a thing for garlic these days. I don't mean to, but I'm always drawn towards the recipes that call for his flavorful ingredient. 

Tonight I was home alone and working on a paper when my always frequent procrastination set in. I needed to take a break (10 minutes into the paper) and had the urge to cook. I'm telling you, I'm a new person. I'm going to be housewife of the year someday (completely kidding). 

I was shocked to have had all of these ingredients on hand and knew it was a sign that this chicken was made me for me to cook. I've been eating healthy all week and ok, I know frying chicken isn't the most nutritious way to cook it, but I needed a little diversion in my life. Hey, much better than fast food at least. It took me all of fifteen minutes to make and allowed me to get right back to staring at my computer screen…I mean writing my paper.

If you prefer not to fry the chicken, you can bake it on 375 for 30 to 40 minutes. Just make sure you marinade the chicken, instead of just pouring the ingredients on top so it can absorb the flavor. 

              (I scraped some of the bread crumbs off- it was a little much) 

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves--> I only had 2 and it was just enough! 
4 teaspoons flour
salt and pepper
2 teaspoons oil
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 teaspoon minced garlic
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon butter--> I used margarine

Flatten chicken slightly. Dust with flour. Salt and pepper chicken.

Fry in hot oil 5 minutes each side. Remove chicken from pan.

To pan add broth, garlic, lemon juice and butter. Cook 2 minutes. Pour over chicken.
