Family Favorites...Garden Skillet Chicken


Once again, a Land O Lakes recipe that doesn’t let you down.   This dish was ready by the time I had my rice cooked.  It’s pretty, it’s healthy and it’s tasty!    I used my Börner mandoline to cut the julienned carrots to make it easy. 
Garden Skillet Chicken
  3        Whole  Chicken Breasts -- Boneless, Skinless, cut in half
  3        Tablespoons  Flour, All-purpose
  2         Tablespoons  Butter
     1/3 Cup  Teriyaki Sauce
  3        Tablespoons  Lemon Juice
     1/2 Teaspoon  Sugar
  1        Teaspoon  Garlic -- finely chopped
  1        Cup  Carrots -- 2 x 1/8 x 1/8" julienne
  4        Ounces  Pea Pods -- or 6 ounces frozen pea pods
            Cooked  Rice
Coat chicken with flour, shake off excess.  In 10" skillet melt butter until sizzling; add chicken.  Cook over medium heat until chicken is lightly browned (5-7 minutes).  Turn chicken over; continue cooking until lightly browned (5-7 minutes more).
Stir in teriyaki sauce, lemon juice, sugar and garlic.  Add carrots, continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until mixture comes to a full boil (3-4 minutes).
Cover; continue cooking 7 minutes.  Remove cover, stir in pea pods.  Continue cooking 3 minutes.  Turn chicken over; continue cooking until chicken is fork tender (2-3 minutes).  Serve over rice.
