1 cup of chicken broth or water
1 cup of milk cream
1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg
Additional salt to taste
Now that you have your ingredients ready, let’s move on to the preparation.
Preparation
Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper. This step ensures that your chicken breasts are well-seasoned and full of flavor.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Allow the butter to melt and coat the bottom of the pan evenly.
Add the seasoned chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until they turn a beautiful golden brown. This initial searing locks in the juices and gives the chicken a lovely texture.
Cooking the Chicken Breasts
After searing, remove the chicken breasts from the skillet and place them on a plate.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic, chopped onion, and an additional tablespoon of butter. Sauté them until the onion becomes translucent and the garlic is aromatic.
Return the seared chicken breasts to the skillet.
Pour in the lemon juice, chicken broth (or water), and milk cream. Season the sauce with nutmeg and a pinch of salt.
