Hey, hey! Valentina with Valentina’s Corner sharing our Lemon Chicken with the best Lemon Butter Sauce.
Lemon Chicken Recipe:
This dish is going to become a favorite chicken dinner recipe for BUSY evenings. The chicken breast is generously coated in parmesan and pan-fried to give it a crispy crust. The chicken is then smothered in a lemon butter sauce with garlic that adds so much flavor to the chicken.
We love easy 30-minute chicken recipes for busy weeknights and some of our go-to’s include Chicken Marsala, classic Chicken Parmesan and of course this easy lemon garlic chicken. With these recipes in your arsenal, you can make restaurant-quality meals for a fraction of the price of eating out.
How to Make Lemon Chicken:
With just a few simple ingredients a few minutes of prep time, you can have yourself the most DELICIOUS crispy chicken breast in a buttery garlic lemon sauce!
- Cut chicken in half lengthwise and beat with a meat mallet to an even thickness.
- Prepare Egg Mixture – whisk together eggs, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Prepare Parmesan Mixture – in a separate bowl, mix together the parmesan cheese and flour.
- Dredge the Chicken – coat in the egg mixture, then generously coat in parmesan mixture, shaking off excess.
- Cook Chicken. Add oil to a hot skillet then add breaded chicken and cook 4-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and the internal temperature reads 165˚F with an Instant Read Thermometer.
Cook’s Tip – If the chicken crust begins to brown too quickly, reduce heat allowing the chicken to fully cook through.
How to Make Lemon Butter Sauce:
This 5-minute EASY lemon butter sauce will become a staple in your home. The sauce is tangy from the fresh lemon and butter and the garlic just brings all the flavors together – SO GOOD!
For a quicker dinner, prepare the lemon sauce in a separate saucepan or skillet while the chicken is cooking. Then just pour the sauce over the chicken once it is cooked. Or, you can just cook the chicken, remove it from the skillet (cover to keep warm) and prepare the sauce in the same skillet, then add the chicken back.
- Saute the garlic and butter until fragrant.
- Whisk in the lemon juice, chicken broth, Italian seasoning, and pepper. Allow the sauce to cook over med heat for about 2 minutes.
NOTE: We love the fresh and tangy lemon flavor in this recipe. If you prefer a less lemony flavor, reduce the lemon juice.
Can I make this Ahead?
If you like to prep dinner in advance, slice the chicken and add it to the egg mixture, cover and refrigerate until you are ready for dinner. Allowing the chicken to marinate will result in a juicier and more tender chicken breast. Then, just continue with the remaining recipe instructions.
Can I make the Lemon Chicken without Parmesan Crust?
Yes! For a healthier option, completely omit the egg mixture and parmesan mixture. Slice the chicken breast and season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Then, continue with the preparation of the sauce.
Substituting for Chicken Thighs?
This lemon chicken will work with chicken breast, chicken thighs, and even chicken tenderloins. You will want to prepare the recipe according to the instructions, the only difference will be in the cooking time. The cook time will depend on the size of the thighs, you want the internal temperature to reach 165F on an instant-read thermometer.
Adding Vegetables to the Chicken in Skillet:
Yes, you may definitely add vegetables to complete the dish. Asparagus, green beans, and zucchini will all go great with the lemon sauce and compliment the chicken
I can’t wait for you to give this simple chicken dinner recipe a try!
What to Serve with Lemon Chicken?
The EASY chicken dish is completely ready in just 30 minutes and can be served with our Mashed Potatoes or your favorite pasta and it pairs well with Caesar Salad.

Hi! I'm Natasha Kravchuk. Here you'll find delicious, trusted recipes with easy step-by-step photos and videos. 
This is my favorite recipe to make! Super easy, fast clean up, and everyone from a 2 year old to my husband love it! I follow the recipe to the T and it comes out perfect each time! Highly recommend this!
I’m so happy to hear that! Thank you for sharing your great review, Lisa!
Seriously delicious and everyone will love it! Have made it several times and will continue to!
That’s just awesome! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review, Michelle!
I’m not much of a cook but I’m gaining interest. Tried this recipe today and loved it!! Very easy to follow, I’ll definitely be making it again!
That’s so great! I’m glad you took that first step! I hope you try and love more recipes!
Made this tonight and it was a great hit….Made it exactly as is with one exception: I didn’t want to waste the leftover parm breading mix, so after plating the chicken onto a serving platter I added the parm to the lemon sauce and cooked it up a bit. The sauce didn’t LOOK as pretty with the parm in it, but the flavor was great. My husband said it was one of the best lemon chicken/piccata-like dishes he’s ever had!! High praise coming from him. My (adult) kids don’t even ask me anymore where a new recipe is from – they just assume it’s from “Natasha”!!
Thank you so much for sharing that with me. That is the best when kids love what we moms make. That’s so great!
Delicious 😋 make sure you spray your pans good before starting because it can get a little stuck!
I’m glad you enjoyed this recipe Lindsey!
I followed this recipe as is only added more cheese and flour because I did double the chicken but this was very good it was a hit all the way around for me and my family. Thanks for sharing this recipe.
Glad you loved the recipe, Tonya. Thank you for your great review and feedback!
I made this tonight and my husband ate two pieces. It is the best chicken I’ve had in a very long time!
Love it! Thanks for sharing that with u, Jan, Glad you both enjoyed this recipe!
This is one of my family’s favorite recipes. It is absolutely delicious. I also shared it with some of my friends, and they can’t wait to try it.
Aww, that’s the best! Thank you so much for sharing that with me, Denneane. Thank you for sharing that with your friends!
I am making this tonight ! Looking for something different and I think this might work! So excited
Sounds like a good plan, Diane. Hope it becomes your new favorite!
Hello! How would you suggest to keep the chicken warm without drying it out, if I’m transporting it from my house to another location? Thank you!
Hi Vicki, it would depend on how long it takes, of course. But you can leave it in a warm casserole dish with a cover and wrap it in a towel/blanket for transport. I haven’t tried keeping it in a slow cooker that will likely keep cooking it.
Delicious recipe! My whole family loved it, will definitely make again
Thank you for sharing that with us, Dawn. Good to know that the recipe was a hit!
This was amazing! I am not always successful in the kitchen, but this worked. Thanks.
I’m so glad you gave this a try, Ada!
My family loved this:) Great recipe!
That is awesome! Thanks for your review, Ellen. I’m glad your family enjoyed this recipe.
Made this tonight and really liked it. So different and delicious 😋
Glad you liked the recipe, Deena! Thank you for your review and feedback.
Do you a video of the recipe?
Hi Jovita, other recipes are just written and it has no video. This one doesn’t have a video tutorial as I only post 1 video per week.
Delicious! Felt like a gourmet chef while making this dish! I served it with angel hair pasta and sautéed asparagus.
That sounds perfect! Thanks for leaving a great review, Brandy. Glad you enjoyed the recipe!
The zucchini pictured looks delicious also. Do you have a good recipe for zucchini?
Hi Lorie, you can find our Zucchini recipes HERE.
Delicious!! Wow, made EXACTLY as written and served with angel hair pasta and salad. Your recipes are perfection for average cooks. I felt pretty proud serving this up.
I’m so glad you gave this a try, Lisa! Thank you so much for sharing that lovely review with me!
Omg so amazing. Loved it!! Will make again! New favorite in the kitchen
I’m so happy you enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that with us, Kaysee!
This was delicious! My whole family loved it. Even my 1.5yr old and 2.5yr old, which is saying a lot for those ages. I made it exactly as you said (though I did salt, pepper, and garlic powder the chicken before dredging), and everything turned out perfect. I wish I had a picture with how pretty they turned out but couldn’t swing it. This will be a repeat recipe for sure.
Aww, that’s the best! Thank you so much for sharing that with me. I’m so happy you all enjoyed this recipe!
Absolutely delicious!
I’m so glad you enjoyed that, Ive!
This was quick and easy to make and oh so good!
I’m so happy you enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that with us, Irina!
Made this recipe exactly as written. It was delicious, had a great taste. I have been looking for a lemon chicken recipe and now I have found one for life!!!
I’m so glad you discovered my blog and this recipe! I’m so happy you enjoyed that.
Very good, simple and tasty.
I halved the butter as I didn’t feel it needed that much.
I’d make it again.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
This was absolutely delicious!!! The lemon butter sauce with the breaded chicken was very tasty. My family loves it.
Thanks for your great review, Kristin. Good to know that you enjoyed this recipe!
Made it with Trader Joes thin sliced chicken breast. Big hit. Also cut tofu into slices and used that for 2nd batch. Also very good.
Course the breading, frying & sauce would make anything taste good.
Great idea, Michael! Thank you so much for sharing that with me.
I made this for lunch today! ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! Note: I didn’t have Parmesan cheese on hand so I just dredged in straight flour, still DELICIOUS!
Yummy! Thank you so much for sharing that with me, I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Natasha….this sounds delicious and will be making it soon…wondered if the sauce amounts can be increased and kept in the fridge to have on hand? Thank you…
Hi Martha, I haven’t tried storing the sauce in the fridge to advise how long it will keep, but making more will work!
Do you have a recipe for Shrimp Cacciatore?
Hi Julie, I do not at this time but thank you so much for that suggestion!
Hands down delicious! Thank you Natasha!
Thank you, Tyler. Glad you loved it!
This dish was simple yet delicious! Had with a garlic herb rice and garlic string beans! It was a garlic extravaganza!
That sounds like a great combination! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
This is delicious. I did add capers cuz I love em. Bur 8 tbsp of butter is very excessive for 2 chicken breasts. I would cut the butter in half next time.
I don’t understand what this “very excessive butter” is that you speak of. I never knew there could ever be too much butter, lol!
You need the extra butter to put on your noodles or potatoes or rice. Depending on what your side dish is. This is one of many of Natasha excellent recipes.
Made this dinner tonight…
Another hit!
Thank you for all your
hard work..❤️🍽👩🍳
Hello Joanne, so great to hear that! Thank you for sharing that with us.
Excellent dish! Will definitely make again. Thanks!
You’re welcome! I’m so happy you enjoyed it, Nina!
I don’t have any garlic can I use garlic powder instead?
Hi Natasha, I haven’t tried it with garlic powder to advise. One of our readers did try it, though, and enjoyed that.
Loved it! Delicious. Added capers to the sauce.
I’m so glad you loved it! Thanks for your great comments and feedback, Vivi.
Vivi, I add capers and extra butter and lemon all the time. I love it on noodles. Soo good.
I love this recipe!!! I made mine with chicken tenders because that is all I had. My husband enjoyed it. I usually make chicken piccata but that doesn’t even come close to this, I will be making this again .
Sounds great, Donna! Thank you for your great comments and feedback. I’m glad you enjoyed this recipe!
Hands down the best dish when you are short on time and want something good and refreshing!
Thank you for your good comments, Tricia!
I have not made this recipe yet, but I really want to. But I don’t want to have to fry it in a pan I would like to bake it in my oven, but I didn’t see where anybody had mentioned that they had done that. So I guess I’ll just try it myself
Hi Midj, I hope you find this helpful. Here’s what one of our readers said about baking it in an oven: “It worked in the oven! I used 1 cup of panko bread crumbs and 1 cup of parmesan cheese instead of the flour/parmesan mix, used cooking spray in my pan, and baked at 375 for 30-35 minutes. My family wanted it crispier, so next time I’ll broil for a few more minutes at the end.”
Fabulous dish and I managed it without my wife’s intervention. And she really enjoyed it!
Achievement unlocked! Haha I’m glad it was a success, David.
So delicious! I used 2 tbsp butter (high blood pressure😕) and thickened the sauce with a little cornflour- still superb! Served with wild rice, and green beans and Swiss chard straight from the garden! Thanks for this great recipe❤️
You’re very welcome, Beth! I’m glad you loved this recipe, thanks for sharing that with us.
Hello Natasha! I love your recipes! I tried this for lunch today with chicken thighs and the family just loved it! My boys rated it 10/10. Thank you for making cooking and baking such a treat!
Wow, that is so awesome! Thank you for giving this recipe a perfect rating!
I don’t have any chicken broth on me at the moment. Would it be okay to omit it or is there a sub I can use?
You can try using bouillon instead.
I have always shied away from lemon chicken recipes because they never seem to have much flavor to me. However, I tried this recipe and I am so glad I did! It is really good! Got a thumbs up from some picky eaters too! Thank you!!!
I’m so glad you tried it too, Ginny! Thank you for sharing that wonderful review!
Can you make this gluten-free, say, with cornstarch instead of flour?
Hi Sherri, yes, this could easily be made with gluten-free flour and gluten-free bread crumbs.
How can I make this ahead so I can serve it to company and still get to visit with them!
Hi Bev, we prefer it fresh! But I bet you can make a it a bit ahead and either keep it warm or reheat.
I tried this tonight, and it turned out great. Much easier than I thought it would be. Thanks for the recipe, will definitely be making it again. I also served broccoli with the lemon sauce on top. Really good!! Next time I’ll take a picture.
Don’t you love a recipe that turns out easy and delicious?! This one is a favorite for a good reason!
Great dish and I love the tip of soaking the chicken in the egg beforehand. Makes prep easier. This is a new family favorite ( all 5 of us and that never happen). Not hard, lemony without being to lemony. A fab meal, thank you.
That is the best when the family loves what we parents make. That’s so great!
What an awesome easy meal to make. Thank you !!! Paired it with mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli. Definitely a keeper🙂👍
Awesome! I’m really happy to read your great comments, thank you for your wonderful review!
I really enjoyed this dish, so delish! I didn’t want to open a can of chicken broth so I used Sherry wine instead. I stir-fried the egg wash with my pasta, put the chicken on the pasta and poured the lemon butter sauce over it, so good! Thank you for sharing your recipe!
Perfect! Glad that worked and the result was great. Thank you for your wonderful review and feedback!
Made this lemon chicken recipe for the first time and gotta say…. Delicious!!! WOW.
Question for you….
The nutritional info is for a 6 oz serving?
Hi Kathleen, yes, that would be about 6oz of chicken per serving. I’m so happy you enjoyed it! Thank you for your wonderful review!
I tried this Lemon Butter Chicken, I didn’t have all the ingredients but substituted what I had to work with. Turn out great! I really like this recipe and will make it again.
Thank you so much for sharing that wonderful review with me, Patti! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
This was so delicious! I’ve made lemon chicken before and it has never come close to tasting anywhere as good as this! The parmesan crust is sooo good!
I’m glad you enjoyed this recipe, Kristen. Thank you for your great feedback!
I made it exactly as directed. My husband said it was the best dish I’ve made an hour 26 years of marriage! I will say, it wasn’t hard but it took me longer than 30 minutes. I know I will be making this again and I’m sure I will get quicker at it! Yummy!!
Hi Michelle, that is so awesome! I’m happy to hear that you and your husband loved this recipe.
Oh my gosh!! This is the BEST Leon Chicken!!! I used 1 fresh lemon for the sauce as the lemon juice. I sliced a lemon in thin slices & placed on too of the chicken while it simmered while I finished everything else. I served it with roasted asparagus. We poured some of the lemon sauce on top of the asparagus as well… instead of just drinking it with a straw :). … it was really good. Thank you for sharing!!
You’re welcome! I’m so happy you enjoyed that, Marcy!
I’ve made this receipe several times and my family loves it! I love your receipes Natasha!
So great to hear that, Audra. Thank you for sharing!
We made this last night and it was so good!! It looked just like the picture!! We went according to instructions 100%. Only problem, no left-overs. LOL!!
That’s just awesome! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review!
I have my own variant at my house and I was using this to get an approximation of the calories and it says it per serving size but not how many oz is one serving lol. I’ll never know
This was easy to make and tasty! I like the Parmesan crust. Honestly, it was tasty even without the sauce. I did drizzle the sauce at the end like the recipe called for and the chicken was still crispy. Will make again! Thanks
You’re welcome! I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
This was SO delicious! I followed the recipe exactly. Wow! Thank you for such an amazingly quick, yet awesome dinner. I paired it with baby red potatoes and zucchini in the air fryer while the chicken and sauce were on the stove. Amazing results!
You are very welcome, Mary. Great to hear that you enjoyed this recipe!
Delish!!!! Even my picky husband liked it. And he has requested it again.
Awesome, I am happy to hear that!
I made this for dinner! It’s soo good with jasmine rice because the butter sauce flavors the rice. Mmmmm 👍
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
This is one of my husband’s favorite dish! Plus it’s so quick and easy to make! The only thing I change was the flour! I am Gluten Free so I used almond flour! Delicious!
That’s just awesome! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review!
I’m making this tonight, yummy
thank you
Sounds like a good plan, Carol. Please share with us how it goes.
Can you make this in the oven vs. stovetop?
Hi Polly, I honestly haven’t tested that yet to advise. If you do an experiment, please share with us how it goes!
i ill try this one as it is just about the way i make mine up.not only do i baste the chicken occasionally i lay my lemon slices on top when baking them, sometimes i just slice the breasts half way through stuff with chicken stuffing then follow through with the rest
Thank you so much for sharing that with me.
Delicious combination of flavours! Easy to assemble. I cooked the sauce in the microwave. It worked fine. We had rice with the chicken, so we used some of the sauce on the rice, too. My husband loved it!
I will certainly be making it again. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
You’re welcome! I’m so glad you enjoyed this recipe, Tracey!
Thank you Natasha. It is so delicious and so simple. Everyone in my big family loves what I make using your recipes. Thank you again.
You are very welcome, Lucia! I’m glad your family is loving my recipes. Thanks for your great review.
Never commented on Pinterest. This turned out great. We both loved it. I added the tablespoon of flour with the broth but other than that, followed exactly. Very very good. Thank you.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
Not awesome. The chicken part of this recipe was good but the lemon butter sauce was not great. It’s kinda thin & & lifeless. Needs to be creamy
Hi Laurie, you can make it a lemon cream sauce if you prefer. Check out our Lemon Chicken Pasta.
What am I doing wrong??? When I began cooking the chicken the coating came off and stuck to the bottom of the pan. I used plenty of oil, maybe it was too much? On a positive note, I loved the flavor of this recipe. I will definitely make it again once I figure out how to cook it.
Hi Elise, I haven’t had that experience. Could it be the pan? Are you coating the chicken well? Using a non-stick pan and preheating the pan and oil before adding the chicken?
I did coat the chicken well, but the pan was not non-stick. I did preheat the pan and oil. Thanks for your reply! I will try a non-stick pan next time. Thanks!
It tastes like my husband’s favorite chicken dish from Buca di Beppo’s without the capers. I used chicken thighs – so juicy! I liked spooning the thinner sauce over the crust in the pan, but my mom wanted to add hers to each individual bite with a small spoon to prevent any sogginess. Everyone attacked it so quickly I didn’t think to get pics until after it was all gone!
Made it with zucchini tossed in the leftover lemon butter sauce. Next time I will make it with capers (because hubs and I love them), thicken it with a touch of xantham gum in the butter sauce, and put it on low-carb fettuccine noodles – I’m sure it will be fabulous!
I always pat my chicken dry and let it sit on the counter about 15 minutes so it’s not slick when I dredge. This seems to help breading not slide off when it has a more dry surface to stick too. Straight out of the package it’s just simply too wet to get a good coating.
This has turned into 1 of my family’s favorites. As good as any entree at 5-star restaurant. I do add more pepper/lemon pepper, Italian seasoning to taste plus a little Panko bread crumbs in parm mixture. Thanks for sharing.I serve w/penne pasta and top that w/fresh squeezed lemon and fresh chopped parsley.
Hello Mary Gail, wow that’s such great feedback. Thank you so much for your wonderful review!
I made the sauce, it is so thin/liquid like, did I do something wrong? if I put on my breaded chicken it will just go soggy & that would be just yucky.
Hi Elaine, if you’d like it thicker, you can try boiling it down more or adding four. I haven’t tried thickening it myself, but cooking it down or adding flour may do that trick!
I am allergic to eggs, what else can i use to substitute for the mixture that will help the dredging mixture stick?
Hi Gigi, I haven’t tried any other substitute to advise. I. checked the comments section too and didn’t see anyone else who used a substitute ingredient for eggs.
I used melted butter (about 4 tablespoons) instead of the eggs and it turned out great!
Good to know that, Julie. Thanks for sharing that with us!
You could try milk. Or double dredge, plain flour, milk, then the cheese mix.
Delicious! Made this last night and we loved it!
That’s just awesome! Thank you for sharing your wonderful review!
Really great recipe! We actually only used 3 Tbsp of butter instead of 8 (which seems like a lot) in the sauce and it was still delicious. We love lemon flavor, if you don’t maybe cut back on the lemon juice. Served with brown lemon rice. So good!
Thanks for your wonderful review, Laura. I’m glad you loved it!
Delicious! Would definitely make this recipe again.
I’m happy you enjoyed this recipe, Christina! Thank you for leaving your excellent review with us.
Amazing. Just amazing
Thank you so much!
Just finished having this for dinner tonight. OMG!! It was so delicious!! Thanks!! Natasha for sharing this recipe with everyone.
Nancy
Perfect! I’m glad you loved it, Nancy. Thanks for your awesome review.
I’m making the lemon butter chicken and made the sauce early. it is very thin. is it supposed to be thicker?
Hi Peg, if you’d like it thicker, you can try boiling it down more or adding four. I haven’t tried thickening it myself, but cooking it down or adding flour may do that trick!
I doubled the lemon juice and added some Italian seasoning to make the sauce to my taste. Very yummy. If I made it again, however, I’d want to figure out the best way to bake it to make it healthier. Thank you for inspiring me to try something different.
You’re welcome, Roberta. Thank you for sharing that with us!
You need an air fryer
Just made this and it was delicious! I did double the sauce recipe and I added a little milk to it to make it a little creamier. Loved this so much more than chicken franchise. Thanks for the great recipe!!
You’re welcome! I’m so happy you enjoyed it, Martina!
Amazing just amazing made this for dinner tonight and it was a huge hit i will definetly be making this again, i served the sauce on the side so the chicken wouldnt get soggy and added panko breadcrumbs to the cheese mix…it was so so so so good.
I’m so happy you enjoyed that. Thank you for sharing that with us!
Absolutely delicious. I used the sauce on some fresh pasta, so light and tasty. Very easy recipe to follow….thanks Natasha
So glad to hear that, Dawn. Thank you for the great review!
A favorite in my house!! I took my leftovers to work and my coworkers.. which you know, (The Selepinas), said it smelled so good!
Thank you for the recipe!
You’re welcome, Rori! I’m so glad you all enjoyed this recipe!
Loved it all ! added 1 tbs of flour to chicken stock and then added it to the heated butter lemon and garlic. Thickened nicely.Served on linguine. Sauce, parm chicken, and pasta married beautifully.
Hi John, great to hear that you loved this recipe! I hope you’ll love every recipe that you will try.
Am out of chicken stock can I just add water
Hi, I think it will be lacking some flavor using water only.
I always keep jars of ‘Better Than Bouillon’ on hand to make stock. It’s a paste that comes in many different flavors and you can make as little or as much stock is needed for recipes.
We do the same, Chuck!
