    4 Servings

Ingredients

4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, divided
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley
3 tablespoons golden raisins
3 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
2 tablespoons finely chopped shallot
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Combine chicken breasts, 1 Tbsp. lemon juice, and 1 Tbsp. oil in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Let marinate for 5 minutes.

    Step 2

    Heat a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken to skillet; cover with lid ajar and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Turn chicken over. Reduce heat to medium, cover with lid ajar, and cook until other side is brown and chicken is cooked through, 5–8 minutes.

    Step 3

    Meanwhile, mix parsley, raisins, pine nuts, and lemon zest in a small bowl. Season gremolata with salt and pepper.

    Step 4

    Transfer chicken to wide shallow bowls. Heat remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in skillet. Add shallot and stir until softened, about 3 minutes. Add broth and remaining 1 Tbsp. lemon juice to skillet and simmer until reduced by half, about 4 minutes.

    Step 5

    Pour sauce from skillet over chicken. Top with gremolata.
