Light Lemon Chicken
8 servings/serving size: 3 ounces chicken, 2 tablespoons sauce

Ingredients

• 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• Salt and pepper to taste (optional)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 cup fat-free low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or 2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes

Directions

1. Coat the chicken breasts with flour and season with salt and pepper (if using). In a large nonstick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the chicken 5-7 minutes until lightly browned and almost done.
2. In a small bowl, combine the chicken broth and cornstarch. Stir the mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring, until the sauce begins to thicken.
