Ingredients

Scale

 

  • 20 oz (1 ¼ lb) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • ½ tsp dried basil
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp salt
  • Freshly ground pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, divided
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp freshly chopped parsley

Instructions

Step 1: Start by drying the chicken breasts with a paper towel and cutting them into 1-inch pieces. This ensures a nice sear.

Step 2: In a medium bowl, toss the chicken pieces with flour, dried oregano, basil, paprika, salt, and pepper until well coated.

Step 3: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. Once the butter melts, arrange the chicken pieces in a single layer in the pan.

Step 4: Cook the chicken undisturbed for about 3 minutes to develop a golden crust. Then, flip them over and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Step 5: Lower the heat and add the remaining butter, minced garlic, and parsley. Stir everything for another minute until the chicken is fully cooked and infused with the buttery garlic flavor.

Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

 

  • Use Fresh Garlic: Freshly minced garlic brings out the best flavors compared to pre-minced jars.
  • Cook in Batches: If your skillet is small, cook the chicken in batches to avoid overcrowding, ensuring a crispy texture.
  • Don’t Skip the Flour: The flour coating gives the chicken a light crispiness and helps the seasonings stick.
