Ingredients
- 1 large skinless, boneless chicken breast
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- ½ tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Using a sharp knife, halve the chicken breast almost entirely down the middle so it opens like a book, but it is still one piece of chicken. Place the chicken cut size down on the cutting board and gently bash it with the heel of your hand so the chicken is all of an even thickness.
- Season both sides with the garlic powder, and generously with the salt and pepper.
- Heat the olive oil in a heavy bottomed frying pan or non-stick skillet set over a medium high heat.
- Once the oil is shimmering, cook the chicken for 3-4 minutes on each side, doing your best not to disturb the chicken as it browns to get a nice, crispy, caramelized crust.
Notes
- If you’re cooking multiple chicken breasts at the same time be sure not to overcrowd the pan as it will stop the chicken becoming golden and crispy. Work in batches instead.
