Delicious Chicken Recipe

Chicken With Lemon and Green Onion Sauce

D. Rattray
Chicken breasts are absolutely delicious broiled then served with this wonderful sauce. If you can find organic, free-range chicken, it's great with this sauce.

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless chicken breast halves
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
  • dash salt
  • dash freshly ground black pepper or seasoned pepper

Preparation:

Heat broiler; line a broiler pan with foil and oil the rack.

Rinse chicken; pat dry. Put chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and gently pound to thin to an even thickness. Rub with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Arrange on oiled broiler rack.

In a saucepan, combine remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 30 seconds.

Broil the chicken for about 12 to 15 minutes, turning about halfway through the cooking time. Drizzle each chicken breast with about 1 teaspoon of the lemon mixture 1 minute before it's finished. Serve chicken with the remaining sauce.
Serves 4.
