Notes
To cook on the stove top:
Heat pan with 1 tbsp oil over medium high heat.
Once hot, place each chicken breast flat in the pan. Cook for 2-4 minutes, or until a crust has formed.
Flip the chicken breast, cover the pan and reduce the heat to low. Cook an additional 5-8 minutes or until chicken is cooked through (internal temp of 165˚F)
*This method works best with thin chicken breasts, so if you plan to cook this way, you can cut or pound the chicken breast to 1/2" thickness.
To cook in the oven:
Preheat oven to 375˚F
Place chicken breast flat on a large baking sheet.
Bake for 15-25 minutes or until chicken is cooked through (internal temp of 165˚F)
