Ingredients You Need

IngredientQuantity
Olive Oil3 tablespoons
Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts1 1/2 pounds (4 average-sized)
Kosher SaltTo taste
Black Pepper (freshly ground)1 teaspoon or to taste
Poultry Seasoning (or Salute Seasoning)1-2 teaspoons
Chicken Broth or White Wine1/2 cup
Minced Garlic1 tablespoon
Unsalted Butter3 tablespoons
Fresh Parsley2 teaspoons

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Chicken

  • Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
  • Season generously with kosher salt, black pepper, and poultry seasoning on both sides.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.

2. Searing the Chicken

  • Place the chicken breasts in the skillet and do not move them for 5 minutes.
  • Once the bottom develops a medium golden-brown crust, flip the chicken.
  • Cook the other side for another 5 minutes without moving it.
  • Remove the chicken from the skillet and place it on a plate to rest.

3. Making the Garlic Butter Sauce

  • Deglaze the skillet by adding chicken broth or white wine.
  • Let it simmer for a few seconds to absorb all the flavorful bits from the pan.
  • Stir in unsalted butter and allow it to melt completely.
  • Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.

4. Combining the Chicken and Sauce

  • Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and coat it with the garlic butter sauce.
  • Turn off the heat and let the flavors blend for a minute.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley for an added pop of color and freshness.
