Categories     Chicken     Lemon

Number Of Ingredients 5

•1 chicken breast
•Juice and zest of 1 lemon
•1-2 teaspoons olive oil or melted coconut oil
•1/4 teaspoon sea salt
•1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • 1. In a plastic zip top bag, combine the chicken breast, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper. Press the air out of the bag and seal. 2. Use a meat pounder or rolling pin to flatten the chicken breast into one even thickness. I have also used an empty Nalgene bottle for the same purpose when I didn't have a meat pounder. Improvise. Be a MacGuyver. 3. Let the chicken marinate for at 30 minutes for best results but you can cook it right away if needed. 4. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add more of your fat of choice, such as coconut oil. 5. Cook the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side or until completely cooked through. 6. Let the meat rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing. http://stupideasypaleo.com/2013/07/10/easy-pan-fried-lemon-chicken/
