- Continue to cut through the chicken breast, keeping the knife flat and parallel to the chopping board, until you have two chicken fillets.

- Add the remaining oil to the skillet and cook the remaining 6 fillets in the same way. Transfer them to the baking dish.
- Thinly slice the garlic and scatter it around the chicken.
- Cut the lemon into small chunks and arrange it around the chicken.
- Sprinkle over the dried oregano and then pour over the chicken broth.
- Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. (see note 1)

GREEK-STYLE LEMON-GARLIC CHICKEN
I love celebrating my Greek heritage with this super simple and scrumptious Sunday dinner idea. Prep time is a breeze and the ingredient list is relatively short for such a flavorful one-dish meal. Each time I make this I'm transported back to my ya-ya, who gave me the special honor of squeezing the lemons! -Lisa Renshaw, Kansas City, Missouri

OREGANO-LEMON CHICKEN
I've been known to make this recipe twice a week-it's so delicious. I like to call it "sticky chicken" since the slightly sweet sauce of honey, lemon juice and hers nicely coats the chicken thighs.
