Lemon Chicken with Thyme
This is a great chicken dish with a lemon touch to it. Sure hope Imelda is going to cook it up again! Thanks Imelda.
Equipment
- 1 large clear plastic bag
- 1 large saucepan
- 1 large oven safe baking dish
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 3 tbsp flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1 tbsp margarine
- 1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 3 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp thyme
- 2 tbsp oil
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- In a plastic bag, combine flour, salt, pepper and shake to mix. Coat chicken lightly with the seasoned flour mixture. Reserve excess seasoned flour.
- In a large saucepan, brown chicken in oil, on both sides. Transfer chicken to a plate and set aside.
- Using the same pan, add margarine and coarsely chopped onions. Saute until onions are translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
- Stir in the reserved seasoned flour, stirring until the flour is completely incorporated. Add broth, lemon juice and thyme. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly.
- Place the chicken into a Pyrex dish or casserole dish large enough to allow the pieces to lie separately. Pour the sauce over the chicken, cover and bake at 350 degrees for about 20-30 min, or until the chicken is tender and opaque.
- Serve with lemon wedges and a sprinkling of parsley, if desired.
