Perfect for two (or for one with delicious lunch leftovers) This gem stems from one of the first recipes I ever learned to make: a sour cream based cream sauce with chopped zucchini, served over pasta. In an attempt to make it lighter, this is what happened...

- oregano
- thyme

- 6 ounces chicken breasts (one large chicken breast, cut in half)

- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1⁄4 cup parmesan cheese
directions
