Instructions

Pat the 2 chicken breasts large dry with paper towels. In a mixing bowl, combine the ½ tsp garlic powder, ½ tsp onion powder, ½ tsp kosher salt, and ¼ tsp black pepper freshly ground. If the 2 chicken breasts large are very thick (more than 1 inch), pound them to an even thickness with a heavy pan or meat mallet. Rub both sides of each breast with 1 tbsp olive oil, then coat evenly with the spice mix.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the 2 chicken breasts large and cook undisturbed for 5–6 minutes, until a deep golden-brown crust forms on the bottom. Flip and cook for another 4–6 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F at the thickest part.
