Step 1

Slice lemon in half. Then slice one ring from each half. Cut those rings in half and set aside.

Step 2

Use the remaining lemon to squeeze 1 1/2 tablespoons of juice.

Step 3

Horizontally slice the chicken breasts through the center to create 4 even-sized breasts. (Use a mallet to flatten the chicken evenly, if needed.)

Step 4

In a large shallow dish, combine flour, salt, black pepper and garlic powder.

Step 5

Thoroughly coat each chicken breast in the flour mixture. Set aside.

Step 6

In a large pan, heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat.

Step 7

Add the chicken and fry both sides for a few minutes on medium high heat, or until golden on the outside and just about cooked through the center.

Step 8

Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.

Step 9

Reduce the heat to medium and add the chicken stock, lemon juice, and honey.

Step 10

When you see the sauce starting to thicken, stir in any resting juices from the chicken.

Step 11

Add 2 tablespoons butter to the pan and combine well.

Step 12

Reduce the temperature to low and place the chicken on top of the sauce.

Step 13

When the sauce is slightly thickened, place a lemon wedge on top of each breast.

Step 14

Drizzle the sauce on the chicken and serve with fresh parsley.
