Garlic Knot Chicken Breasts

Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
  • 4 chicken cutlets (about 1 1/2 pounds)
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 large cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup packed fresh parsley leaves and tender stems, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges (optional)
Method
Cook the chicken:
  1. Heat the oil and 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the chicken dry and season all over with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. 
  2. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until golden brown on both sides and registers 165°F in the thickest part, about 3 minutes per side. Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the chicken to a plate; set aside.
Make the garlic-butter sauce:
  1. Off the heat, add the remaining butter and stir until melted. Add the garlic and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  2. Add the chicken and serve:
  3. Place the skillet back over medium heat and return the chicken to the skillet along with any juices. Add half of the parsley and turn to coat; season to taste with salt and pepper. 
  4. Serve garlic knot chicken topped with the Parmesan and remaining parsley. Provide lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over, if desired.
