Creamy Lemon Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Between pieces of plastic wrap or waxed paper, place each chicken breast smooth side down; gently pound with flat side of meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/2 inch thick. In small shallow dish, mix flour with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper; dip each chicken breast into flour mixture, coating all sides.
• 2. In 10-inch skillet, heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Cook chicken breasts in oil 6 to 8 minutes, turning once, or until brown. In small bowl, mix cooking sauce and lemon juice.
• 3. Pour sauce mixture over chicken. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer 5 to 10 minutes or until juice of chicken is clear when center of thickest part is cut (at least 165 degrees F). Sprinkle with parsley and lemon peel. Serve with rice.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken until lightly browned on both sides, 5 to 7 minutes. Place in a baking dish.
• Stir lemon juice and zest into the leftover butter in the pan, and cook over medium-low heat, stirring, for 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in half-and-half slowly. Stir in 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese until sauce is smooth. Pour sauce over chicken.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 20 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese on top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a large ovenproof skillet over high heat.
• Liberally season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper before transferring to the hot skillet.
• Sear the chicken 2-3 minutes per side, just until it develops a golden-brown color.
• Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside. Allow the pan to cool slightly before heating the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat.
• Toss in the garlic and sautée until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Pour in the chicken broth, yogurt, lemon juice, and oregano and stir until the mixture is smooth.
• Let the mixture reduce for a few minutes until it has thickened.
• Pour in the spinach and sprinkle over another pinch of salt. Let the greens wilt down, stirring occasionally.
• Place the chicken breasts back into the pan and transfer the pan to the oven.
• Bake for 15 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked.
• Serve chicken on a bed of the wilted spinach and top with a drizzle of the creamy sauce.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• On a cutting board, cut the chicken breasts in half, widthwise.
• Lay chicken flat and season both sides with salt and pepper.
• Gently coat the chicken pieces in the flour, shaking off any excess.
• Heat a skillet on medium-high heat and add the butter and oil, swirling together to coat the pan.
• Place the chicken breasts into the pan and cook for 3-5 minutes or until golden brown.
• Flip the chicken and cook the other side, another 3-5 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
• Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
• Pour ¼ cup (60 ml) of the chicken stock in the pan and scrape up any bits that may have stuck to the bottom of the pan.
• Add the rest of the stock and the cream and stir.
• Season with salt and pepper, and add the lemon juice.
• Simmer for 5 minutes. Add the chicken back to the pan and top with sliced lemons.
• Spoon the sauce over the chicken.

Stir in flour until smooth; gradually whisk in cooking juices. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in cream. Serve chicken and rice with sauce.

Steps:

• Cook chicken breasts on grill (I use my George Forman Grill -- 9 minutes on it). If you don't have a grill, cook them in a frying pan.
• In a separate pan, combine the cream of chicken soup, water, lemon juice and pepper, simmer on low.
• Add cooked chicken breats to sauce and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Serve with rice.

• Slice or cube chicken and season lightly with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook farfalle at a boil, stirring occasionally, for 6 minutes. Drain, cover, and set aside.
• Heat butter and olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add wine and cook, 1 to 2 minutes. Add garlic and lemon juice and cook, 1 to 2 minutes. Don't allow garlic to brown.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and add cream cheese, stirring until melted and blended. Add flour to sour cream, mix well, and stir into the pan. Add chicken stock, parsley, thyme, red pepper, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer until slightly thickened. Add more stock if sauce is too thick. Remove from heat.
• Add 1/2 cup Parmesan and lemon zest, stir well. Taste and adjust seasoning. Add partially cooked farfalle and blend well. Pour into the prepared baking or casserole pan and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese.
• Bake, covered, in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Uncover and continue to bake until lightly browned, 7 to 10 minutes more.

Steps:

• In a nonstick skillet, heat olive oil over med high.
• Stir in garlic butter until melted.
• Add chicken.
• Cook 5 min to brown, then reduce heat to med.
• Turn chicken and cook about 4-5min more until juice runs clear when pierced.
• Transfer chicken to a warm dish.
• Lower heat if needed to maintain medium-low to medium heat so as not to scorch the garlic, then add garlic to the drippings in the skillet.
• In a cup, mix stock, wine, lemon juice, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of flour until smooth.
• Stir into mixture in skillet. Scrape skillet to incorporate any browned bits from the chicken.
• Heat to a boil, boil 1 minute. Stir in capers and remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and the heavy cream, simmer until thickened.
• Pour sauce over chicken, sprinkle with parsley and garnish with additional lemon slices.
• **This recipe is to make double the sauce to add to add to pasta if you are laying the chicken on top.
• Note: Occasionally, this has turned out a little more "tangy" than I would like with too much lemon. If this happens, just dilute with a little extra chicken stock or broth mixed with cornstarch or flour to keep thicker consistency.
