A quick and comforting Garlic Butter Chicken recipe featuring tender chicken coated in a savory garlic and butter sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts (pounded to an even thickness)
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons 21 Salute Seasoning or poultry seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt (or to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (or to taste)
  • 1/2 cup white wine or chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon garlic (finely minced)
  • 2 teaspoons fresh parsley (optional for garnishing)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Season the pounded chicken breasts with 21 Salute Seasoning, kosher salt, and black pepper.
  3. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for 5 minutes until golden brown.
  4. Flip the chicken and cook for an additional 5 minutes until fully cooked through.
  5. Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest.
  6. To deglaze the skillet, pour in the white wine or chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits.
  7. Add unsalted butter and stir until it melts, then add the minced garlic and stir until fragrant.
  8. Return the chicken to the skillet, coating it in the delicious sauce.
  9. Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley before serving with rice, potatoes, or vegetables.

Notes

For a lighter option, you can use chicken broth instead of white wine, and if you’re out of fresh parsley, any herb you enjoy will work.
