Comment préparer Chicken Breasts In Light Lemon Sauce

Season chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper.
Melt margarine in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken stock and bring to a simmer.
Add chicken breasts to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through and no longer pink.
Transfer chicken to an oven-safe dish.
Add sherry, lemon juice, and lemon zest to the skillet. Stir well to combine.
In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and evaporated milk until smooth.
Gradually whisk the cornstarch mixture into the skillet, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens and comes to a gentle simmer. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
Remove sauce from heat. If using, sauté sliced mushrooms in a separate pan until tender before adding to the sauce at this stage.
Pour the sauce over the chicken in the oven-safe dish.
Sprinkle Parmesan cheese evenly over the chicken and sauce.
Broil for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is golden brown and bubbly.
Serve immediately over rice.
