Ingredients
  

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

5 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried parsley

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions
 

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.

    Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and season with salt, pepper, thyme, and paprika. Cook for about 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is golden and cooked through.

      Once the chicken is cooked, reduce the heat to low and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and lemon juice to the skillet. Stir everything together to coat the chicken in the garlic butter sauce.

        Allow the mixture to simmer for another 2-3 minutes, letting the flavors meld.

          Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
