 “Fresh lemon and dill create a quick Greek-inspired pan sauce for simple sautéed chicken breasts. Make it a meal: Serve with roasted broccoli and whole-wheat orzo.”

### Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, (1-1¼ pounds)  
 Salt & freshly ground pepper, to taste  
 3 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, or canola oil, divided  
 ¼ cup finely chopped onion  
 3 cloves garlic, minced  
 1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth  
 2 teaspoons flour  
 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, divided  
 1 tablespoon lemon juice

 

### Directions

- 1Season chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat 1½ teaspoons oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear until well browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a plate and tent with foil.
- 2Reduce heat to medium. Add the remaining 1½ teaspoons oil to the pan. Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Whisk broth, flour, 1 tablespoon dill and lemon juice in a measuring cup and add to pan. Cook, whisking, until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.
- 3Return the chicken and any accumulated juices to the pan; reduce heat to low and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 4 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a warmed platter. Season sauce with salt and pepper and spoon over the chicken. Garnish with the remaining 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill.
