Easy Lemon Basil Chicken - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1/3 cup olive oil, divided
    1/3 cup lemon juice
    1/3 cup soy sauce (gluten-free)
    4 tablespoons dried basil
    4 chicken pieces
Preparation
    Sprinkle chicken, both sides, with basil (1 T per piece). It should be a liberal coating; you can even use more than what's listed.
    Heat a fry pan on medium-high and add 1 T of the olive oil.
    Mix remaining oil, lemon juice and soy sauce. Set aside.
    Brown chicken in oil, both sides. Add liquid mix. Bring to a boil.
    At this point you can either place chicken in an oven pan and bake at 375\u00b0F or just turn the stove down to a simmer; cook for 15-20 min for boneless and 40-45 min for bone-in chicken.
