Chicken with Lemon and Garlic Recipe is pan-fried chicken strips seasoned with shallots, garlic cloves and paprika then finished with lemon juice and chopped fresh parsley before garnishing with parsley and lemon wedges.


INGREDIENTS
2 skinless chicken breast fillets
2 tbsp olive oil
1 shallot, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tsp paprika
juice of 1 lemon
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
salt and ground black pepper
fresh flat leaf parsley, to garnish
lemon wedges, to serve


DIRECTIONS
1: Remove the little fillet (tender) from the back of each breast portion. If the breast still looks fatter than a finger, bat it with a rolling pin to make it thinner. Slice all the chicken meat into strips.
 
2: Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Stir-fry the chicken strips with the shallot, garlic and paprika over a high heat for about 3 minutes until cooked through.
 
3: Add the lemon juice and parsley and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot with lemon wedges, garnished with flat leaf parsley.
 
4: Variation: For a variation on this dish, try using strips of turkey breast or pork fillet. They need slightly longer cooking. The whites of spring onions (scallions) can replace shallots, and the chopped green tops can be used instead of parsley.
