Total time: 20 min
Servings: 3
  • 3 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast Fillets
  • 2 tbsp. Butter
  • 1/2 tsp. Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp. Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp. Cayenne Pepper
  • 1 tsp. Paprika
  • 1/4 tsp. Cumin
  • 1/2 tsp. Dried Thyme
  • 1/4 tsp. Salt & Black Pepper
  • Slice each chicken breast in half horizontally, making two pieces of about the same thickness. Flatten them slightly with the heel of you hand.
  • Put the butter in a small pan and melt over a low heat. Do not let it brown.
  • Mix the remaining ingredients in a bowl. Brush the chicken on both sides with a little of the melted butter. Sprinkle evenly with the seasoning mix.
  • Heat a large heavy-based frying pan over a high heat for about 5-8 minutes, until a drop of water sprinkled on the surface sizzles.
  • Drizzle 5ml/t tsp melted butter on to each chicken piece. Place them in the frying pan in an even layer, two or three at a time, and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the underside begins to blacken. Turn the chicken over and cook the other side for 2-3 minutes more. Remove from the pan and keep hot while cooking successive batches. Serve hot with salad leaves and pepper strips.
