📝 Preparation Steps
1
Using a sharp knife, slice each chicken breast in half horizontally, being careful not to slice it all the way through. Open the chicken like a book and place it between two pieces of plastic wrap. Pound the chicken to an even thickness and pat dry.
2
Combine the Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, MSG (if using), black pepper, and paprika together in a small bowl. Sprinkle the seasoning over the chicken, coating both sides.

Let the chicken sit for ⏱️ 30 minutes, or as long as overnight in a covered container in the refrigerator.
4
Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about ⏱️ 5 minutes on each side, until the chicken is browned and crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Transfer the chicken to a plate and pour the melted butter over the chicken.
