Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, I like to prep my chicken by seasoning it generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. This allows the flavors to penetrate the meat. In a large skillet over medium heat, I heat the olive oil and add the seasoned chicken breasts, cooking them for about 6-7 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked through. The sizzle in the pan is music to my ears! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
