Creating Lemon Garlic Butter Chicken is straightforward and rewarding. Follow these easy steps to prepare this delicious meal:

1. Prepare Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. Heat Skillet: In a large skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
3. Cook Chicken: Add the seasoned chicken breasts to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
4. Remove Chicken: Once done, remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
5. Sauté Garlic: In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, stir in the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 1 minute).
6. Add Broth and Lemon: Pour in the chicken broth, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Stir well to combine.
7. Simmer Sauce: Allow the sauce to simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
8. Return Chicken: Add the cooked chicken back to the skillet. Spoon the sauce over the top, allowing it to soak in for about 1-2 minutes.
9. Garnish: Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley on top for a pop of color and flavor.
10. Serve: Place the chicken on a serving platter and drizzle with the remaining sauce from the skillet.

Each of these steps ensures a perfectly cooked Lemon Garlic Butter Chicken that is both tender and bursting with flavor.
