- 1 large boneless skinless chicken breast
- 1 tablespoon olive or avocado oil
- 1/2 teaspoon EACH cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder
- 1/8 teaspoon paprika (or cayenne)
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Step 1: Rinse and pat the chicken dry. Stir together the cumin, garlic, onion, paprika, and salt. Rub the spice blend all over the chicken.
- Step 2: Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear for 2 minutes. Flip and sear another 2 minutes.
