4. Place each breast in pan and fry 5 minutes on each side, or until thermometer inserted in thickest part reads 165*. Place chicken on a plate and cover.
5. Heat skillet to medium low and melt butter. Add garlic and saute. Slowly add water, bouillon, and lemon juice and bring to a wimmer while de-glazing the pan. 
6. Return chicken to pan, coat with juices, and heat through.
7. Serve with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, salad, etc.
