Garlic Butter Chicken Bites

Step 1

In a large bowl, toss the prepared chicken breasts in olive oil. Add the flour, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper and stir until completely incorporated.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 3 tablespoons butter and swirl to coat the pan.

Step 3

Add the chicken, being sure to space evenly apart. Do not touch until the chicken appears to be almost cooked through. (About 3 minutes)

Step 4

Flip over the chicken pieces and continue cooking an additional 2 minutes or until the internal temperature reads 165 degrees F.

Step 5

Remove the cooked chicken from the pan and set aside.

Step 6

Lower the temperature to medium low heat and add the remaining butter to the skillet. Use a spatula to scrape the browned chicken bits from the bottom of the pan.

Step 7

Add garlic to the butter, cooking for 1 minute or until fragrant.

Step 8

Return the chicken to the pan and add the lemon juice and fresh parsley.

Step 9

Toss to fully coat the chicken in the sauce and serve immediately.
