  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts (1.5 lbs) Choose organic for best flavor.

  • 4 tbsp real butter Use high-quality butter for rich flavor.
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced Fresh garlic makes a big difference in taste.
  • 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth Opt for low-sodium to control salt.
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped Fresh herbs brighten the dish.
  • Salt and pepper to taste Seasoning is key to enhancing flavors.

Notes

To elevate your dish, start with fresh ingredients, ensure the skillet is hot enough when searing, and allow the dish to sit for a few minutes after cooking to let the flavors meld beautifully.
