Directions:
Directions:
-Fry chicken breasts in butter and oil until golden brown on both sides. Remove from pan and sprinkle with flour on both sides.
-To the pan add water, bouillon cubes, 2 tbsp fresh squeezed lemon juice and 1/2 tsp lemon zest.
- Stir together over medium heat until the liquid comes to a boil and bouillon dissolves.
- Return chicken to pan. Simmer on low heat for 30-45 minutes. (I often let this stay on low heat for an hour or two. It makes the chicken even more tender.).
- Place chicken on serving platter.
- To the juices, add 1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with a small amount of water.
- Allow this to thicken the gravy over medium heat, and then pour over the chicken.
- Garnish with thinly sliced lemon slices and chopped parsley.
