Do you struggle with easy weeknight meals? Over the years, I seem to have found a variety of recipes that are “go-to” delicious meals that come together very easily and taste great too. I look for recipes that are low in fat, but nutritious and satisfying. Chicken dishes seem to adapt well to various tastes and flavors which allow the protein to appear very different based on seasonings and cooking methods.
Here is a recipe for a lemon flavored chicken which is excellent. The way I made the recipe, the flavor profile was subtle, so I would increase the lemon ingredients for a more bold flavor if desired.
Gather these ingredients: 3 tablespoons margarine, about 10 white mushrooms-sliced, 1 teaspoon lemon zest, 3 tablespoons lemon juice, 2/3 cup chicken broth, 1 pound chicken thighs or breasts, salt and pepper to taste, dried parsley, 1/2 cup white wine.
Using an electric skillet, melt the margarine. Start with the mushrooms, lemon zest and juice. Simmer to soften the mushrooms.
Add broth and bring up to temperature. Next, cook the chicken breasts in the skillet. This step may take 8 minutes. Then, add the wine and parsley. Finish the dish and serve.
