1
Prepare the Chicken
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
2
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
3
Sauté the Chicken
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/75°C).
4
Add Garlic and Thyme
In the last 2 minutes of cooking, add the minced garlic and chopped thyme to the skillet, stirring to combine and allowing the flavors to meld.
5
Finish with Lemon
Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the sautéed chicken with lemon juice before serving.
