    Chicken Breast with Sage and Lemon


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 whole chicken breast, sliced in two
    1 tbsp butter
    6 to 8 whole leaves fresh sage or more to taste (you could also use dried oregano)
    1 tbsp lemon juice
    1 to 2 tbsp dry white wine (or more lemon juice)
    1 tsp water
    salt and freshly ground black pepper

    Recipe



    Slice chicken breast in half and pat dry with paper towel (will brown better), season with salt and pepper; set aside.

    Heat butter in a medium sized skillet along with sage leaves. When butter is hot and begins to bubble, raise heat to medium high and add chicken breasts. Brown on both sides, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Remove to separate warm plate.

    Add lemon juice to pan and scrape dripping from bottom of pan, add the wine or more lemon juice, and a teaspoon of water and heat through, reducing (just below a simmer until liquid thickens) slightly. Add salt and pepper to taste.

    Return chicken to pan, heat through, 1-2 minutes. Serve.

    Servings: 2
