Instructions

Start by trimming any excess fat from the chicken breasts. Marinate the chicken in your favorite spices for at least 30 minutes.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown.
Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before slicing to ensure it remains juicy.
