How to Cook Chicken - Stove Top

By: Kelsey

Ingredients 

  • 1.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, or whatever is in the pack at the store!
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 tablespoon avocado or olive oil

Instructions 

  • Bring a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add oil to the pan.
  • Place chicken breasts in a large ziplock bag and use a meat tenderizer or heavy pan to pound the breasts into a uniform thickness.
  • Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of the chicken and then place into the hot skillet.
  • Cook for about 4 minutes on each side - this time was perfect for my chicken breasts but be sure to make sure there is no pink on the inside or the internal temperate reaches 165 degrees on a meat thermometer.
