Step By Step Guide

Prepare The Chicken

Wash the chicken breasts and press it firmly. Pat it dry with a clean towel.

Make The Chicken Ready For Marination

In the first step, take a mixing bowl and combine garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, black pepper, lemon zest, and salt. Evenly coat the chicken. Set aside and let it rest for about 15–30 minutes (or for a longer duration to absorb the aromatic flavours).

Heat The Pan

In the next step, take a grill pan or a non-stick skillet and place it over a medium flame. Add a few drops of oil to prevent sticking.

Cook The Chicken

Once you have completed the above steps, now place the marinated chicken in the hot pan and cook thoroughly for at least 5–6 minutes on both sides until the chicken becomes tender, golden brown, and leaves the aroma.

Remove The Chicken

Once it is completely cooked, carefully remove the dish from the heat. Let it rest for a few minutes.

Garnish And Serve

Your perfect appetizer is now ready to serve. Garnish the dish with fresh coriander leaves or lemon zest. It is best to be served hot with rice or chapati.
