Directions
- Combine olive oil, lemon juice and zest, garlic, oregano, salt, pepper, and paprika. Coat chicken and marinate for 30 minutes when time allows. Heat a seasoned de Buyer skillet over medium-high heat and sear chicken until well browned. Add stock, reduce heat, and finish gently until the thickest portion reaches 165°F. Rest 5 minutes, reduce the pan juices slightly, and spoon them over the chicken. Finish with parsley and additional lemon if desired.
