For the Lemon Garlic Butter Sauce:

1 tbsp fresh lemon juice


1 tsp lemon zest


1 tsp honey (for balance)


1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped



Instructions

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.


Cook chicken breasts for 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown and fully cooked.

4. Combine & Serve


Return the chicken breasts to the pan, coat them with the sauce, and simmer for 1–2 minutes.


Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot with rice, pasta, or vegetables.
