📝 Preparation Steps
1
Slice chicken breasts in half through the thickness to create 4 portions total. Cover with plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet to even out their thickness.
2
Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat.
3
Place flour in a shallow dish. Season both sides of chicken breast portions with salt and pepper then dredge each side in flour, gently shake off excess flour.
4
Place chicken in skillet (spacing evenly apart) and cook until browned and cooked through, about 4 to ⏱️ 5 minutes per side (chicken should register 165 degrees in center of thickest portion). Note that if skillet seems dry when you turn chicken to second side then drizzle in an additional 1/2 Tbsp olive oil.
