1/4 cup fresh lemon juice |
1 teaspoon kosher salt |

3 tablespoons olive oil |
1/2 cup goat cheese, crumbled |
Directions:
1. Place breasts in shallow dish and toss with lemon juice.
2. Marinate, turning once or twice for thirty minutes at room temperature.
3. Arrange a rack at center position and preheat the oven to 350.
4. In small bowl, mix together thyme, salt and pepper.
5. Pat breasts dry and coat on both sides with some of the thyme mixture.
6. Heat olive oil in a large, ovenproof skillet set over medium high heat.
7. Saute chicken until golden on both sides, about 2 minutes per side.
8. Place pan iwth chicken in overn and bake until juices run clear when chicken is pierced with a sharp knife, about 10-12 minutes.
