Chicken seared in lemon and herbs proves that good taste does not always depend on a lot of ingredients.
INGREDIENTS (for 2 servings):
- 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- 1 lemon
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pinch dried oregano
- 2 sprigs fresh parsley, for garnish
PREPARATION:
Cut lemon in half, and squeeze juice from 1/2 lemon on chicken. Season with salt to taste. Let sit while you heat oil in a small skillet over medium low heat.
When oil is hot, put chicken in skillet. As you saute chicken, add juice from other 1/2 lemon, pepper to taste, and oregano. Saute for 5 to 10 minutes each side, or until juices run clear. Serve with parsley for garnish.
