CHICKEN BREASTS WITH LEMON
In this recipe, which Pierre Franey brought to The Times in 1992 in one of his 60-Minute Gourmet columns, two teaspoons of lemon zest are added to a simple sauce of lemon juice, thyme, garlic and shallots. It is, at once, lively and elegant. To round it out, it needs a sturdy accompaniment. Mr. Franey suggested mashed potatoes with garlic and basil, with just a little olive oil swirled in.

Steps:
- Season flour with salt and pepper, and dredge the chicken all over. Remove the excess flour.
- Heat the oil in a heavy skillet large enough to hold the chicken pieces in one layer. Add chicken and cook, uncovered, over medium heat for 5 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Flip the chicken and cook for 5 minutes more, or until cooked through. Carefully remove the oil from the skillet, leaving the chicken. Discard the oil.
- Add the thyme, shallots and garlic, and cook for about a minute. Do not burn the garlic. Add the lemon rind, the lemon juice and the broth.
- Scrape the skillet to dissolve the brown particles that cling to the bottom. Add the butter, and cook for 3 minutes longer. Serve immediately.

BEST LEMON CHICKEN
I found this on the back of a bag of frozen chicken breasts. There were five things I liked about this recipe; it was easy, it is weight watchers core friendly, it smelled great cooking, it was tasty, and I didn't have to remember to thaw the meat. I served this with some brown rice and some steamed corn. The whole family enjoyed it. I included the marinade time in with the prep time. And my chicken was pretty thick so I ended up flipping my chicken 2 more times and broiling an additional 3 minutes each flip. The cook time I noted is per package directions.
