👨‍🍳 Instructions

Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.

Season chicken with salt and pepper; place in the melted butter.

Cook chicken, flipping frequently, until browned, about 5 minutes.

Sprinkle 1 tablespoon garlic powder over chicken; flip and sprinkle 1 tablespoon garlic powder on second side.

Cook each side for 2 minutes.

Pour lemon juice over each side of chicken and cook until no longer pink in the center, 5 to 10 minutes more.

An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
