Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a deep skillet on medium, just until it spits when a drop of water is added.

Tips:
- Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet or non-stick frying pan: This will help to prevent the chicken from sticking and will give it a nice, even sear.
- Pat the chicken dry before cooking: This will help the skin to crisp up and will prevent the chicken from splattering.
- Use a combination of butter and oil: This will help to prevent the butter from burning and will give the chicken a nice, golden-brown color.
- Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper: This will help to enhance the flavor of the chicken.
- Cook the chicken over medium heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from overcooking and will allow it to cook evenly.
- Baste the chicken with the butter-oil mixture while it cooks: This will help to keep the chicken moist and will add flavor.
- Cook the chicken until it is cooked through: This can be checked by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken. The chicken is cooked through when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken and will make it more tender.
Conclusion:
Pan-fried chicken with garlic and lemon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, and the garlic and lemon add a bright and flavorful touch. This dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
