Ingredients:

Instructions:

1. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and lemon zest on both sides.

2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

3. In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and olive oil. Add the sliced mushrooms and onions, and sauté until they start to brown, about 5 minutes.

4. Add the minced garlic, sliced chili, cherry tomatoes, and bay leaves to the skillet. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the tomatoes start to soften.

5. Pour in the lemon juice and stir to combine all the flavors. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

6. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the mushroom mixture over the top. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to heat the chicken through.

7. Serve the lemon garlic chicken hot over a bed of chopped lettuce.

Special Tips or Variations:

- You can substitute chicken thighs for chicken breasts for a juicier result.

- Add a splash of white wine or chicken broth to the skillet before adding the lemon juice for extra flavor.

- Garnish the dish with fresh herbs like parsley or basil for a pop of color and freshness.
