Lemon Chicken

Ingredients

• 2 Tbsp olive oil
• 1 pound chicken breast – thinly sliced or pounded to ½ inch thick or less
• 3 green onions, minced
• ½ tsp dried thyme
• 1½ Tbsp flour
• ½ cup dry white wine
• ¾ cup reduced sodium chicken broth
• ¾ cup low-fat milk
• ¼ tsp salt
• 1-2 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice, to taste
• 1 Tbsp grated lemon zest

Directions

Heat the oil in a large skillet. Saute chicken until lightly browned on one side, about 2 minutes. Flip the chicken pieces and sauté another 30 seconds. Remove chicken to a plate.

Reduce heat and sauté green onions and thyme for 1-2 minutes. Stir in flour. Whisk in the wine, stirring constantly, bringing to a boil. Whisk in the broth and milk, reduce heat to a simmer. Add salt, lemon juice and lemon zest. Return chicken to the pan to heat through, about 2 minutes.
