Step-by-Step Instructions
First, I like to start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to give them that flavor boost right from the beginning. Then, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. The sounds of chicken sizzling away remind me that dinner is just around the corner. Once cooked, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips. This step is crucial as it keeps the juices from running out. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
