Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- ½ cup unsalted butter (, melted)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- ¾ teaspoon coarse sea salt
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
- ¾ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon white pepper
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
Instruction
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. While the oven is preheating, combine all of the blackened seasoning ingredients into a small prep bowl and stir to combine. Set aside.
- Next, add your butter to a microwavable safe bowl and warm for 30-60 seconds or until melted.
- Dredge each chicken breast into the melted butter, then coat all sides with the prepared blackened seasoning. Repeat until all the chicken is dredged and coated.
- Heat a large skillet (cast iron or stainless steel work best) over medium heat. Once the skillet is warm add in your oil. Once your oil is warm and shimming add in each chicken breast and cook for 3-5 minutes per side, or until the outside develops a golden-brown blackened color.
- Once both sides are blacked, place your skillet directly into the oven (only if it is oven safe, see notes) and cook the chicken for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reads 165 degrees F.
- Once the chicken is cooked through remove from the skillet and enjoy warm on its own with your favorite sauce, or added into your recipe of choice.
