Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 8 oz angel hair pasta
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- In a shallow dish, combine 1/4 cup of flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
- Dredge the chicken breasts in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

- Pour in 1/2 cup of chicken broth and 1/4 cup of fresh lemon juice, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.

- While the chicken is simmering, cook 8 oz of angel hair pasta according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- To serve, place a portion of angel hair pasta on each plate, top with a lemon garlic chicken breast, and spoon the sauce over the chicken and pasta.
