Equipment
Method
- Start by placing the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap. Use a meat mallet to gently pound them to an even thickness.
- In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Rub this spice mixture all over the chicken breasts.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the seasoned chicken breasts to the hot skillet. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on one side until golden brown.
- Carefully flip the chicken over and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes on the other side until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
- Once the chicken is cooked, squeeze the juice of one lemon over the top.
- Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes.
- Slice the chicken against the grain and serve it on a plate.
Notes
This chicken pairs wonderfully with various sides like steamed vegetables or garlic mashed potatoes.
