- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked.
Making the Garlic Butter Sauce:

- Add the garlic, and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Stir in the parsley, thyme (if using), lemon juice, and chicken broth. Bring to a simmer.
- Cook for about 3-4 minutes, until the sauce has slightly thickened.
Serving:
