Step 1

Cut the chicken in half horizontally to make 2 steaks. Optional: pound to make them even thickness around 1cm / 2/5" thick (I do this).

Step 2

Zest the lemons to make 1 1/2 - 2 tbsp lemon zest. Avoid grating too much of the white part - it's bitter.

Step 3

Place zest into bowl with 1 tbsp olive oil and mix to combine. Add chicken and use your hands to slather oil mixture onto chicken.

Step 4

Mix flour, salt, pepper and garlic powder in a shallow bowl.

Step 5

Dip chicken into flour mixture, shaking to remove excess.

Step 6

Heat oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Cook chicken for 2 minutes on each side, or until golden.

Step 7

Optional: Slice zested lemon and cook the slices, like pictured.

Step 8

Serve chicken, garnished with fresh parsley if using.
