Herbes de Provence is a classic French seasoning that transforms any dish. Serve with roasted potato wedges.
Ingredients
- 4 (6-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 1 cup fat-free chicken broth
- 1 1/2 teaspoons dried herbes de Provence
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Directions
- Place each chicken breast half between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; pound to 1/2-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Sprinkle chicken evenly with salt and pepper.
- Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add chicken; cook 6 minutes on each side or until done. Remove chicken from pan; keep warm.
- Add garlic to pan; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add broth and herbes de Provence; bring to a boil, scraping pan to loosen browned bits.
