Pechuga de pollo a la sartén de hierro fundido

Ingredientes

• 2 medium Skinless Chicken Breasts (about 6 ounces each)
• 2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 1/4 teaspoon Garlic Powder
• 1/4 teaspoon Salt
• 1/8 teaspoon Pepper
• 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 teaspoons Unsalted Butter
• 2 fresh Rosemary (strands)

Preparación

1. 1

   Make sure the skillet is properly seasoned (oiled) before starting the recipe, or the meat can stick to the skillet.

2. 2

   Pre-warm the skillet on medium-high heat.

3. 3

   Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) on the broiling mode.

4. 4

   In a small mixing bowl, stir all the marinade ingredients: olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, Italian seasonings, salt, and pepper.

5. 5

   Rub each chicken breast with the marinade on both sides.

6. 6

   Place both chicken breasts in the hot skillet and cook for 2 minutes then flip and cook for 2 extra minutes.

7. 7

   Reduce to low-medium heat, and add the two rosemary strands on the sides of the chicken in the skillet. Foil the skillet and keep cooking until the meat is cooked in the center and reaches 165°F (74°C) and the meat is no longer pink in the middle. Depending on the thickness of your meat, it can take between 6-10 minutes.

8. 8

   Remove foil and place one teaspoon of butter on top of each breast.

9. 9

   Place the skillet on the top rack of the oven for 4-8 minutes on broil mode, until meat is grilled on top. Check often and remove as soon as the meat is grilled.

    Serve immediately.
