Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken breasts: Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
  • Season the chicken breasts well: Sprinkle the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings before cooking. This will help to enhance the flavor of the chicken.
  • Cook the chicken breasts over medium heat: Cooking the chicken breasts over medium heat will help to prevent them from drying out.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken breasts: The chicken breasts are done cooking when they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken breasts rest before serving: Letting the chicken breasts rest for a few minutes before serving will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chicken breast.
