Equipment

Ingredients
- 2 breasts boneless skinless chicken about 1.3 lbs. total
- 2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon lemon pepper seasoning
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil
- 1 clove garlic minced
- ½ cup chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice

- Combine the flour and lemon pepper seasoning in a bowl. Sprinkle the mixture over both sides of the chicken breast pieces and then rub it in until the chicken is fully coated.
