22 Ritz Crackers, finely crushed (about 1 cup)

2 Tbsp. olive oil

2 tsp. chopped fresh parsley

1/2 cup 25%-less-sodium chicken broth

1 Tbsp. butter

Make It

CUT 4 thin lemon slices from half of 1 lemon. Squeeze juice from remaining lemons; set aside. Coat chicken with Miracle Whip, then cracker crumbs.

HEAT oil in large skillet on medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook 5 min. Turn; cook on medium heat 5 min. or until chicken is golden brown on both sides and done (170ºF). Transfer chicken to platter; sprinkle with parsley. Cover to keep warm. Carefully wipe out skillet with paper towel.

ADD lemon juice and broth to skillet; cook on medium-high heat 6 to 8 min. or until slightly reduced, stirring occasionally. Add butter and lemon slices; cook and stir on low heat 3 to 4 min. or until butter is melted and lemons are heated through. Serve over chicken.
