Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into bite-size pieces

  • 1 clove garlic, crushed

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour

  • ½ cup margarine

  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice

  • ½ cup chopped fresh mint leaves

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, mix together the chicken pieces and garlic. Toss with the flour just to coat, and shake off excess.

  2. Heat the margarine in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces; cook and stir until browned. Add the mint leaves and lemon juice, cover and steam for about 5 minutes, just until the chicken is cooked through. Do not over cook the chicken or it will be tough.
