Garlic Butter Chicken

Ingredients
 

  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts, pounded to an even thickness (4 average-sized breasts)
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, finely minced
  • 2 teaspoons fresh parsley, optional for garnishing
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika

Instructions
 

  • In a large skillet, heat olive oil, place pounded chicken, season with paprika, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Sear for 5 minutes undisturbed over medium-high heat, then flip and sear for another 5 minutes (adjust for thicker cuts).
  • Transfer chicken to a plate to rest.
  • Carefully deglaze the skillet with wine (or broth) until it bubbles. Add butter and stir until melted (about 1 minute). Incorporate garlic and cook for another minute.
  • Turn off the heat, return the chicken to the skillet, coat it with the garlic butter sauce, and spoon the sauce over the chicken.
  • Optionally garnish with parsley and serve immediately.
