- 2 lb Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil
- 3 tbsp Butter
- 6 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped
- 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Pat the chicken breast pieces dry with paper towels. Season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss until every piece is evenly coated.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in a single layer, working in batches if needed, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a plate.
Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add butter to the same skillet and let it melt. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
Return the chicken to the skillet and toss everything together for about 1 minute so the chicken absorbs all the garlic butter flavor.
Remove from heat and squeeze lemon juice over the top. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
