This garlic butter chicken is perfect for a quick and easy midweek dinner. It&#039;s rich, garlicky and only requires 4 ingredients for the sauce!

Garlic Butter Chicken

Chicken Breasts, (brought close to room temp)

/ 120 milliliters Chicken Stock

Garlic, (minced/finely diced)

tbsp finely diced Fresh Parsley

tbsp Olive Oil

tsp Garlic Powder

tsp Black Pepper, (plus more to taste)

Lemon,

Flour

In a shallow dish, combine 1/4 cup flour with 1 tsp garlic powder &amp; salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.

Dredge

Butterfly your chicken breasts right through the centre to make 4 even sized breasts. One by one dredge in the flour (press in the flour to get an even coverage), give them a shake then place to one side.

Add 1 tbsp butter and 1 tbsp olive oil to a large pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add in the chicken breasts and fry until golden on each side and white/piping hot through the centre. Approx 3-5mins each side depending on thickness. Place to one side.

Sauce

Turn heat down to a medium and add garlic. Fry for 1-2mins until it just begins to brown, then pour in stock. Use your wooden spoon to scrape off any flavour stuck to the pan, then add in your remaining 5 tbsp butter. Swiftly whisk as it melts to bind with the stock, it should turn slightly cloudy. Sprinkle in parsley and season to taste with salt &amp; black pepper.

Serve

Allow to simmer for a few mins until it starts to thicken, then turn down the heat to low and add the chicken back in. Spoon over the sauce then serve up with extra sauce drizzled over and a squeeze of lemon juice to taste (optional - see notes).
