Ingredients
 
 

  • Olive Oil
  • 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts sliced in half horizontally or 4 small breasts
  • salt and pepper
  • garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 sprig fresh rosemary or 1 tbsp dried
  • 1/2 fresh lemon
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine or chicken broth

Instructions
 

  • Put a skillet that is big enough to handle the filets on at medium high. Eyeball just enough olive oil to cover the bottom.  Salt, pepper and garlic powder both sides of the filets. Lay the filets out in the skillet and cook them about 3-5 minutes a side depending on their thickness. 
    When they are firm to a poke and the juices run clear or they read 165° F on a meat thermometer remove them to a dish that will catch the drippings.
  • Now add the butter, rosemary, white wine, lemon juice and the rind to the skillet. When the butter has melted and the wine has reduced a little put the filets back into the skillet. Turn the filets over a couple of times as they warm backup.
  • Then put the filets on your serving plates then spoon that good stuff from the skillet onto the filets. 
    Serve up and enjoy your  Lemon Rosemary Chicken Filets
