Lemon pepper smothered chicken

 

Ingredients

• 2 chicken breasts cut in half lengthwise
• 1 teaspoon seasoning Salt 
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 tablespoons butter divided
• 2 cloves garlic minced
• 1 tablespoon flour
• 2/3 cup chicken broth
• 1/2 cup heavy/whipping cream
• 1/2 tablespoon lemon pepper
• 2 tablespoons honey 
• 2 tablespoons mustard 
• 1 tablespoon of lemon pepper seasoning 

Instructions

• Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise so you've got 4 thinner pieces.
•  Sprinkle them with seasoning salt
•   lemon pepper 
  
• Add the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter to a skillet over medium-high heat. Let the pan heat up for a few minutes.
  
• Sear the chicken for 4-5 minutes/side, then transfer it to a plate.
  
• Add the remaining butter to the pan and let it melt, then add in the garlic and sprinkle the flour in. Let it cook for about 30 seconds to 1 minute (stir it a couple times).
  
• Add the broth, cream, and lemon pepper to the skillet. Whisk it for a minute or so until the flour dissolves.
  
• Add the chicken back to the pan add the honey and the mustard (and any juices from the plate), and let it cook for another 4-5 minutes or until the chicken has cooked through (165F) and the sauce has thickened a bit. You may need to turn the heat down if it's boiling like crazy (you want it to bubble ). Season with more lemon pepper if needed and serve immediately.
