Cheesy Garlic Butter Chicken

Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.

Cook the Chicken:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for about 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown. Once done, remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Make the Garlic Butter Sauce:
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant.

Simmer the Chicken:
Pour in the chicken broth, soy sauce, and lemon juice, stirring to combine. Return the chicken to the skillet, reduce the heat to low, and cover. Let the chicken simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until fully cooked.

Add Cheese and Melt:
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the chicken breasts. Cover the skillet again and cook for another 2 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted.

Garnish and Serve:
Remove the skillet from heat, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve the cheesy chicken hot with your favorite sides.
