Marinate
Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.

Cook the Chicken
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken breasts and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

Add Lemon Juice
In the last minute of cooking, drizzle lemon juice over the chicken for added flavor.

Remove the chicken from the skillet, let it rest for 5 minutes, then sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
