Anytime I can whip up a quick dinner that doesn’t leave my sink overflowing with dishes, it’s a win! That’s why one-skillet recipes<\/a>\u2014like this lemon broccoli chicken\u2014are my go-to meals most nights of the week. This one-pan meal requires no special ingredients or equipment, and can be on the table in 35 minutes.<\/p>\n

One of the tricks to quick chicken dinners<\/a> is slicing boneless skinless chicken breasts for faster cooking. In this recipe, you’ll lightly coat the sliced chicken with egg and flour, then pan-fry it in butter until it’s golden brown and lightly crispy. After, you’ll deglaze the pan with chicken broth and lemon juice to create a pan sauce. Vibrant broccoli florets steam-cook in the bright lemon butter sauce as it reduces (another time-saving trick).<\/p>\n
