Pan fried marjoram chicken breasts with cherry tomatoes

Made a simple dish for dinner today. And it's really easy. It just takes 30 minutes to prepare.

Pan fried marjoram chicken breasts with cherry tomatoes (Serves 2)

Pan fried marjoram chicken breasts with cherry tomatoes

Ingredients:

2.5 tablespoons of butter (at room temperature)

1 to 2 cloves of garlic, chopped to fine pieces

1.5 to 2 teaspoons of marjoram

0.5 to 1 teaspoon of paprika

Black pepper

Salt

2 chicken breasts (skinless and boneless)

300g of cherry tomatoes

Dash of parsley

Instructions:

1) Season the chicken breasts with some salt and pepper.

2) Mix the butter, garlic, marjoram, and paprika in a small bowl. Add some pepper and a little bit of salt.

3) Add 1.5 tablespoons of the mixture to a skillet over medium heat and spread it uniformly.

4) Add the chicken into the skillet and cover. It should take around 5 minutes each side to be cooked.

5) Transfer the chicken to a plate. You may want to cover it with foil to keep it warm.

6) Add the cherry tomatoes to the skillet and stir it frequently to prevent it from being charred, then add the remaining mixture in. Crush the tomatoes slightly to release some juices, and continue to stir. Add a bit of salt and pepper, and you are done.

7) Before serving, garnish the tomatoes and chicken breasts with some parsley.

Note that this serves 2, but the portions would be too small if there aren't other dishes or if you are a big eater. If you want, you can prepare 3 (or even 4) pieces of chicken breasts for 2 people. Just adjust the ingredients quantity accordingly.
