Pan Fried Chicken with Gravy

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. Season both sides of the chicken with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook on each side for 4-5 minutes then transfer to a plate (the chicken will not be cooked through at this point).
3. Add the butter to the skillet and melt over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk to combine. Cook for about 1 minute.
4. Slowly add the chicken broth, while whisking, and continue to whisk until well combined. Add the Italian seasoning and onion powder and whisk to combine.
5. Reduce the heat to low. Add the chicken back to the skillet, along with any juices from the plate, and continue to cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through and an internal temperature of 165 degrees F is reached. Keep the heat on low to thicken the gravy while the chicken cooks.
6. Once the chicken is cooked through, transfer to serving plates. Spoon the gravy over the top and garnish with fresh chopped parsley. Serve with mashed potatoes or steamed veggies. Enjoy!
