Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Season the chicken breast with salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken breast and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Garlic Sauce

    While the chicken is resting, mince the garlic cloves. In a small bowl, combine minced garlic with a pinch of salt and 2 tablespoons of olive oil to create a garlic sauce.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Slice the cooked chicken breast and serve it on a plate with pickles on the side. Drizzle the garlic sauce over the chicken before serving.
