Description
A light, flavorful chicken dish with a bright garlic Parmesan sauce, cooked in one skillet in under 30 minutes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (5–6 oz each)
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp black pepper

- 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- ½ cup low-sodium chicken stock
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 60 g grated Parmesan cheese
- 60 g plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Pat the chicken breasts dry and pound them to an even thickness. Season with salt and pepper and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Heat extra-virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove and let rest.

- Stir in grated Parmesan and Greek yogurt, followed by lemon juice. Cook until smooth.
- Return chicken to the skillet, spoon sauce over, and warm through before serving with parsley.
Notes
