Chicken Lazone

 

This recipe comes from the restaurant "Brennan's" located in New Orleans. No one has to know how simple and quick it is. Note: if you like a little "heat" please feel free to add some cayenne pepper to taste. Do not let the chili pepper scare you. It adds a wonderful flavor.

4 whole boneless skinless chicken breasts

1/4 cup butter, divided

*if using fresh garlic and onion - saute them in the butter for a few minutes before adding chicken Ð keep an eye so they do not burn while cooking)

In large saute pan melt half of the butter and cook chicken over medium heat for about 7 to 8 minutes, turning once.
