Dude, I'm a 22 year-old student who can barely cook, I followed these steps and let me tell you... this is the best chicken I've ever had! No joke. Thank you for this.

I'm jealous at how smooth his oven rack slid back in. I have to wrestle with mines.

Just cooked this with a little twist and it was so good! After browning the chicken I added the chicken stock, lemon juice and butter... But also added garlic and thyme. After cooking the chicken an reducing the liquid to a sauce I topped the chicken with lemon zest from the lemons I squeezed. Bursting with flavor! Love cooking it's such an art

Broccoli florets satueed in the sauce with a little more butter and a clove of garlic would be delicious

Thanks, it was delish! I added onion slices and cooked down the liquids on low heat. The best!

I made this chicken, and used beer instead of the chicken stock. Also, before putting it in the oven I added herbs de Provence. It came out delicious. We loved it!!! It’s perfect to add to a salad. Thank you so much for the recipe. It’s definitively a keeper.

My family said it was one of their favorites meals thus far! Thanks for the recipe and pointers on juicy chicken every time. I used to hate making chicken because it came out dry all the time. NOT NOW! THE BOMB! I've conquered the chicken and won thanks to u!

Omg I don’t have the iron skillet so I transferred my sauce and seared chicken to a glass oven dish and turned up the heat to 350 degrees F and this was the best chicken breast I have ever had!!! Thank you!!!

When you don’t have both your parents at home to cook for you, YouTube is key 😂🥰

I made this last night and it came out amazing, I did add my own twist by sprinkling some creole seasoning but it was juicy, tender, and super flavorful. Thanks.

I love how you both teach and help us "feel" your sense of smell and taste while making this delicious dish! I am making this for my brother tomorrow, he is ill. Thank you!

First time in my new d3 all clad s/s (and first time using stainless steel) Cooked it for my wife and it was fantastic. I also added in the broth mini red and gold potato's and towards the end petite broccoli florets. I was looking for something different and you hit a home run with this one! Thank you,

[TheColonelJJ]

I'm addicted to this oh so simple dish! Doing it twice in a week. Just changing up the sides. Oh, any leftover slices are awesome on a Caesar Salad or sandwich!!

[soliloqueoneLG]

Going to make for dinner tonight. Thanks looks so delicious!! Definitely going to add few garlic cloves.

I made this chicken breast dish yesterday and man it was good and juicy. The chicken broth, butter and lemon while sizzling made it very flavorful.

I’m making this with 10 pieces of chicken. I have to feed a family of 5 and have left overs for work. I put them in a casserole and I hope it works out! The first time I did it, it was with 4 pieces and it came out delish! So .... I hope it’s the same the second time!
