Italian Pan Seared Chicken Breast

Easy Pan-Seared Chicken Breasts have a crunchy crust and lots of flavor from Italian seasoning! With just a few simple steps, this easy chicken recipe turns out excellent every single time. The best way to cook flavorful and juicy chicken is on the stove! Easy pan-seared chicken breasts is one of my favorite ways to make chicken. You pan fry chicken right in the skillet. So that you can enjoy crunchy crust and lots of flavor! I use this cooking method in a variety of recipes since it’s an excellent way to cook boneless and skinless chicken breasts when you are short on time.

Ingredients:
4 chicken breasts, (thin, boneless and skinless)
½ cup flour
1 teaspoon sea salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions:
Paper towel dry your thin chicken breasts (if you bought thick ones, make sure to butterfly each one). In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and Italian Seasoning. Stir well to blend.
Using a fork or tongs, coat the chicken breasts in the flour mixture and set aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, place flour coated chicken breasts in the skillet and cook for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, turning once between cooking, about 8-10 minutes.
Remove chicken from pan and serve warm with pasta or vegetables.
