Instructions

1
Pat the chicken breasts dry, then rub all over with 1 tbsp olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
2
Heat a grill pan or large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the chicken and cook undisturbed for 6–7 minutes, then flip and cook for another 5–6 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 165°F (74°C). Transfer to a cutting board and rest for 5 minutes, then slice crosswise into strips.
