Description

This easy pan-seared chicken recipe delivers juicy, tender chicken with a crisp golden crust in just minutes.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.
  2. Dredge the chicken in flour, shaking off excess.
  3. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat.
  4. Add the chicken breasts to the pan and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Serve warm.

Notes

Pat the chicken dry before seasoning to ensure the flour sticks. Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness at 165°F (74°C).
