Sage Chicken is a truly special dish that combines the simplicity of chicken with the spicy aroma of sage. Sage is a powerful, aromatic herb that pairs perfectly with chicken, especially when gently fried under crispy skin.
When making sage chicken, chicken thighs or fillets are stewed with sage and butter, which helps preserve the meat's juiciness. Sage appears not only as a spice, but also as a component that gives the dish its unique flavor. When serving, you can also offer it with fresh vegetables or potatoes.
Clean the chicken breasts and season with salt and pepper.
Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil. Sear the chicken breasts on both sides until golden brown.
Add the fresh sage leaves and continue to cook until the sage is fragrant and crispy.
Drizzle with lemon juice and serve hot with fresh vegetables or a salad.
