Οδηγίες
Mix the seasoning. In a mixing bowl combine 1/3 cup parmesan cheese, garlic powder, basil, thyme, lemon zest, salt, and pepper.
Coat the chicken. Drizzle a bit of olive oil over each chicken breast and rub the prepared seasoning all around the chicken. You can also put the seasoning in a shallow dish and dredge the chicken breasts in it.
Preheat the pan. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add a tablespoon of olive oil and melt 1 tablespoon butter.
Cook the chicken. Once melted, add the chicken and sear it until golden, about 5 minutes. Flip and continue to cook for 5 more minutes, or until golden. Cooking time will depend on the thickness of the chicken breasts. Remove chicken from skillet; set aside and keep covered.
Sauté the garlic. Melt the remaining butter in the skillet. Add garlic; lower heat to medium and cook for 20 seconds.
Make the sauce. Whisk in the chicken broth, then the cream and remaining Parmesan cheese. Season with more salt and pepper, if desired, and stir until combined. Continue to cook for about 2 minutes, or until thickened. Whisk in the lemon juice and cook for 1 more minute.
Put it all together. Return the chicken back to the pan; let simmer in the sauce for about 2 to 3 minutes, or until heated through. Remove from heat; garnish with lemon slices and parsley, and serve.
