When I first came across this recipe, I thought to myself....it sounds so difficult and I bet it takes a long time to make! Boy, was I wrong! It's probably one of the easiest, quickest recipes to follow and it tastes delicious. This is one of Logan's favorites. It's our go-to recipe when we can't think of anything else to make for dinner and Logan loves to make it simply because it's quick, easy, and yummy! I love it when my husband cooks =)
INGREDIENTS
- 4 chicken breast halves (boneless)
- 1/2 cup butter or margarine
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp. dried parsley
- 1 tsp. dried basil
- 1/4 tsp. dried oregano
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 - 1 tbsp. lemon juice
- 1/2 cup mushrooms (chopped) and/or 1 can of chopped mushrooms, optional
- 1/4 cup red bell peppers (sliced), optional
- freshly grated Parmesan cheese, to taste
- salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
DIRECTIONS
- In a skillet heat the butter/margarine and oil over medium high until the butter/margarine melt.
- Add the parsley, basil, oregano, and garlic. Mix together in the skillet. Stir in lemon juice.
- Add the chicken and saute for about 3 minutes or until each side is white. Add the mushrooms and red bell peppers (this is optional, but I would HIGHLY recommend it).
- Lower the heat and cook for about 10-15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve over rice or spaghetti noodles, topped with grated Parmesan cheese. (I served this with bow-tie noodles and garlic bread).
Serves 4.
