Contrary to the opinion of many, who mistakenly think that the chicken breast is a boring and even dry cut, it is one of my favorites.
It is always available, quick to prepare and perfect for a light midweek meal.
It's no coincidence that I only have some recipes here in the section that you also like to return to again and again, such as chicken breast in roasted cherry tomato sauce and coconut cream, chicken breast in lemons or for example juicy chicken breast in the oven with cilantro and mustard.
The following recipe is a very simple and easy base recipe.
Lightly soak the thin slices in lemon juice and herbs and hop into a hot pan for a short sear.
It's delicious just like that with a side dish of rice or potatoes and will also go great over a fresh leafy salad.
Tip:
briefly soaking the chicken breast in lemon juice softens it and makes it particularly juicy.
