Moist and tender chicken breasts

I’ve been preparing these tender chicken breasts for years. I don’t even remember how this recipe came to my mind, but it always pleases all, probably because the chicken breasts come out very moist and tender.

It is a very easy recipe and so quick to prepare. You don’t need any expertise to do it. It is often the dinner when I don’t have any idea nor time but don’t want to eat bread and cheese.

Don’t worry with being precise with the recipe. The amount of lemon juice will depend on the quantity of chicken you’re cooking. For 4 fillets (not big and already sliced) I use juice of one lemon. I never measured ingredients for this recipe. I just wrote them to give you an idea.
