📝 Preparation Steps

Combine the spices in a small bowl or ramekin.

Stir in two tablespoons of avocado oil.

Brush the seasonings onto both sides of each chicken breast.

Heat a 10" cast iron skillet on medium heat, or just a little past medium with the remaining avocado oil.

Carefully place the chicken into the skillet to cook for ⏱️ 4-5 minutes.

Use tongs to flip and cook for an additional ⏱️ 4-5 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken registers 165°F with an instant thermometer.

I like to add butter to the tops of the chicken breast after flipping them, but it's not necessary.

Once the chicken is cooked through, remove them to a plate or cooling rack to rest for ⏱️ 5 minutes before serving.
