Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

½ teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped

Juice of 1 lemon

Optional: Red chili flakes for a bit of heat

Instructions
 

In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.

    Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

      Season the chicken pieces with salt, pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning. Add them to the skillet and cook until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.

        Once the chicken is cooked, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet, along with the lemon juice and red chili flakes (if using). Stir to combine; this will create a delicious garlic butter sauce.

          Remove from heat and toss the chicken bites in the sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
