Beer Glazed Chicken

Yep. I said BEER GLAZED CHICKEN. I will share the fabulousness of it with you.
2 chicken breasts, boneless, skinless, and butterflied
2 tbs olive oil
2 tbs lemon juice
1/2 bottle good IPA beer. Don't cook with it if you won't drink it. curious phrase, because I don't really love an IPA, but this was a yummy dinner.
garlic powder, lemon pepper, salt, mrs. dash, fresh ground pepper.
Season the butterflied chicken with lemon pepper, mrs. dash, salt and garlic powder.
Brown the chicken breasts in a pan over medium high in heated oil. about 4-5 minutes per side.
Pour on 1/2 a bottle of beer. Cover and simmer 5-8 minutes. Chicken should feel firm.
Remove chicken, and cover with foil.
Whisk about 1 tbs of olive oil into the beer in the pan. Whisk in lemon juice and reduce by about 1/2. finish with salt and fresh ground pepper.
Drizzle over chicken and serve.
Seriously YUMMMY.
Reducing the beer takes the bitter Beer taste out of it.
