Juan's Buttery Garlic Chicken

I took a note from Riff and used olive oil in place of the butter and it was definitely a keeper. i'll be making this one regularly. I didn't cut it in half though - I'm going to use the leftovers for chicken sandwiches.

I cut this recipe in half and forgot the diet and used butter. I found that it only took about 40 minutes to cook and was lovely and moist and certainly had great flavour. I will have to try it with the shrimps now.

We love Juan and we loved Juan's chicken! I also cut the recipe in half and use 1/2 olive oil 1/2 butter. I actually prepared this over the stove top so it took about 20 minutes. I added the juice of 1/2 lemon and a little lemon rind for zing. Came out very moist and tasty. Served with broccoli and pour a little of the sauce on top. Will be making this often. Thanks Deb!

Great, simple dish here. I've made SLPC's shrimp and this is every bit as good. I also subbed olive oil for the butter and cut the recipe in half. But otherwise followed it to the letter.

I cut this down for two and subbed olive oil for the butter, loved it. Only had to cook for about 40 minutes uncovered.

Quick fix for dinner last night. BF said he wanted garlic/lemon chicken. I was a little stingy with the lemon pepper since I don't care for it and always find it a little strong, but he said the flavor really didn't pop through so shake it on there! It's gotta compete with the garlic. Thanks Sidd!

Wow, what a great easy recipe! I cut the recipe in half and cooked on the stovetop per other reviewers since I had a lack of time. Didn't have lemon pepper so I sprinkled cracked pepper on the breasts and drizzled some fresh lime juice over them while sauteeing in the pan. Turned out fabulous!! A little salty for my taste but that's because of my cajun seasoning (and it's 'lower salt' - can't imagine it having any more!). I served it with a rice pilaf and some vegetables along with Failproof French Bread, Failproof French Bread (Bread Machine). 5 stars from this kitchen!!!

Very easy weeknight meal. I made on stove, took about 20 minutes. I went a little overboard with the lemon juice that a previous reviewer had added. I ended up adding some chicken broth and making a nice sauce for the chicken and mashed potatoes. Very juicy. Next time I make again, will follow directions in recipe to see if turns out any different.

Very easy and really good. I made just as the recipe directed and the chicken turned out very moist and flavorful. We love garlic, so this recipe was a must try. I'll definitely make it again. Next time, I'll add a little more Cajun seasoning. I was afraid it would be too overpowering, so I didn't add as much as I would have liked. Thanks for a great recipe!

I relly enjoyed this chicken! I like things a bit peppery and this is right up there!! DH said it tastes good, but he had to add some Mexican cheese to his. I think it was a bit too peppery for him... I wish I had read the reviews from others about cutting the butter and using olive oil because I would have done that. This chicken came out VERY moist!! I will be making this again!! Oh... the smell??.. Let's just say it smelled so good that I FORGOT to take a picture first!!!

This could NOt be any easier! WAY too much butter however, I even cut it back to 6 Tablespoons. The garlic was so very yummy, my house smelled heavenly while this was cooking. I did add some lemon to the blend. My son who adores lemon pepper liked this recipe. Dh thought it definitely needed salt. I will make this again.

Sly, sorry this is late, and first off I want to say that you and "Juan" got a good thing goin' here!! This chicken was delicious and easy to do. I had to use thin cut chicken breasts as that is what I had on hand, and I just cut the cooking time down a little. Using an entire jar of minced garlic and a little extra Cajun Seasoning (personal preference), I was so glad that I chose this recipe! This is an easy recipe to do on a worknight, as simply put together and pop in the oven! Great job, and thanks again! :) Might use this during OCB, eh? :o)

This turned out really well. I left the butter to soften at room temp then I mixed it w/the minced garlic and spread it like a paste on top of the chicken. The garlic taste was very strong but I love garlic so I really enjoyed this. It cooked in a little less than an hour.
