1.
Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.

Cook the chicken for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
3.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
4.
Add the chicken broth to the skillet and deglaze the pan by scraping up any browned bits.
5.
Stir in the heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.

Return the chicken to the skillet and spoon the sauce over top.

Tips:
For a crispy crust on the chicken, make sure the skillet is hot before frying.
If you don’t have heavy cream, you can substitute milk or half-and-half.
Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to the sauce for extra brightness.
Serve with rice, pasta, or roasted vegetables.
