¼ tsp black pepper
3 tbsp olive oil, divided

For the sauce

5 cloves garlic, thinly sliced

¾ cup chicken broth
3 tbsp fresh lemon juice (from about 1 large lemon)
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tsp dijon mustard

For serving

2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and season both sides evenly with the salt and black pepper.
