10 Minute Chicken

written by The Recipe Exchange | October 26, 2021

Ingredients

4 thin chicken breasts (boneless, skinless)
4 tablespoons olive oil (one for rubbing and one for cooking)
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
4 cloves garlic (pressed)
2 teaspoons parsley (dried)
1 teaspoon thyme (dried)
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (plus more to taste)

Directions

Rub the chicken breasts generously with oil. Season with all of the seasonings.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat another 2 tablespoons of oil and add the chicken breasts. Cover the pan with a lid, leaving a small gap for steam to escape. Cook for 3 minutes without touching the pan or the chicken. Once the tops of the chicken turn white, flip and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and serve immediately.
