Description

A quick and delicious weeknight dinner featuring tender chicken breasts and fresh zucchini smothered in garlic butter.


Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 medium zucchinis, sliced
  • 4 tablespoons garlic butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Fresh parsley for garnish


Instructions

  1. Begin by melting the garlic butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. While the butter is melting, season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  3. Once the butter is ready, add the seasoned chicken to the skillet, cooking for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and golden brown.
  4. Next, add the sliced zucchini to the skillet, allowing it to cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until tender.
  5. Serve hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley.

Notes

Consider using flavored butter or other seasonal vegetables for added variety. Let the chicken rest before cutting for maximum juiciness.
