Chicken with a Twist

It seems that chicken is often the staple of any successful dish we create and the Campbell's famous martinis are always a hit with a twist of lemon. So we decided to pair the two together to make a very simple dish and really turn up the volume.


Chicken with a Twist

Ingredients:

2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tbs. olive oil
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup chicken stock
1 lemon zested and juiced
1 tbs. butter

Directions:

Begin by salting and peppering the breasts. Next coat the breasts with olive oil. Place in pan on medium to high heat cooking 5 minutes on each side. When chicken is done (you can test this by touching the chicken to see if it is firm) remove to a plate and cover with foil.

Return pan to medium heat and add wine to deglaze. Reduce by half and add chicken stock, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Once again reduce by half and remove from heat. Add butter to thicken sauce. Plate chicken and serve.

We served this chicken with roasted potatoes.

Servings: 2
