Prepare the Chicken: Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt, black pepper, paprika, and oregano.
Sear the Chicken: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Make the Sauce:
Reduce the heat to medium and melt the butter in the skillet.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute, or until fragrant.
Stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and chicken broth (or white wine if using). Bring to a simmer.
Simmer the Chicken: Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Cover and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve with rice, pasta, or roasted vegetables.
