---

Instructions:

1. Prepare the chicken

Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips or bite-sized pieces. Season them with salt and black pepper.

2. Cook the chicken

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter.

Add the chicken slices and cook for about 4–5 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.

3. Make the garlic butter sauce

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter.

Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant (be careful not to burn it).

4. Add the cream

Pour in the heavy cream. Stir well and let it simmer gently for 2–3 minutes until slightly thickened.

5. Add lemon juice

Stir in the lemon juice for a fresh, bright flavor.

6. Combine everything

Return the cooked chicken to the skillet. Stir to coat the chicken well with the creamy garlic butter sauce. Let it heat through for another 2–3 minutes.

7. Garnish and serve

Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley if using. Serve immediately!
