Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s dive right into the cooking process! First, heat the olive oil in your skillet over medium-high heat. While that’s warming up, season the chicken breasts with cumin, salt, and pepper. When the oil is shimmering, add the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes on each side until it’s browned and cooked through. The smell of the seasoned chicken filling the air is simply heavenly! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
