- Ensure the chicken breasts are of even thickness, or pound them slightly to achieve uniform cooking.
- Preheat your pan over medium-high heat before adding the chicken. This helps in achieving a crispy crust.
- Avoid flipping the chicken too often. Allow it to cook undisturbed for a few minutes on each side for a beautiful crust and even cook.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. Chicken is fully cooked when it reaches 165°F (75°C).
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after cooking. This helps lock in the juices and makes for a more flavorful bite.
