Pan Seared Chicken Breasts

• porții: 4 servings
• timp total: 20 minutes

Ingrediente

2 tsp steak seasoning ($0.20)

1/2 tsp smoked paprika ($0.05)

1/2 tsp sweet paprika ($0.05)

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (1.3 lbs. total) ($6.79)

1 Tbsp cooking oil ($0.08)

1 Tbsp butter (optional) ($0.10)

Instrucțiuni

Combine the steak seasoning, smoked paprika, and sweet paprika in a bowl. Coat the chicken breasts liberally with the seasoning on all sides.

Add the cooking oil to a large skillet and heat over medium-low (or medium for thin-cut breasts). Once hot, swirl the oil to coat the skillet.

Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 8 minutes without flipping (5 minutes for thin-cut breasts). Flip the chicken and then cook on the second side until well browned and cooked through (internal temperature of 165ºF).

For extra luscious chicken, add a tablespoon of butter to the skillet, allow it to melt, then flip the chicken a couple of times to coat in the melted butter.

Transfer the chicken to a clean cutting board and allow it to rest for five minutes before slicing and serving.
