Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lb Chicken Breasts about 3 chicken breasts
  • 1.5 tbsp Italian Seasoning
  • 1 tbsp Garlic Powder
  • 3/4 tsp Natural Ancient Sea Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
  • 2 tbsp Avocado Oil

  • Heat avocado oil in a cast iron skillet on medium heat (about 2 minutes)
  • Cook the chicken breast for 4-5 minutes per side, or until your chicken breast reaches 160 degrees (it’ll continue to cook to 165 degrees as it rests)

  • Top the chicken breast with any of the garnishes and a squeeze of lemon.
