Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 chicken breasts (skinless and boneless)
6 tablespoons butter (optional) or 6 tablespoons margarine (optional)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons sweet paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried thyme

Steps:

  • Slice each chicken breast in half horizontally,making two pieces about the same size.If using,melt the butter/margarine.
  • Combine the remaining ingredients.Brush the chicken withe butter on both sides,then sprinkle evenly with the spice mixture.
  • Heat a large heavy based frying pan,then drizzle a little melted butter on each chicken piece (about 1 tsp).Place in the pan,and cook for 2-3 mins,until the underside begins to blacken.Turn and cook for a further 2-3 mins,or until cooked through.Serve hot.

Tips:

  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet or Dutch oven to ensure even heat distribution and prevent burning.
  • Make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the chicken. This will help create a nice crust and prevent the chicken from sticking.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet or Dutch oven. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the chicken over medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through. Be careful not to overcook the chicken, or it will become dry and tough.
  • Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute and make the chicken more tender.
