½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
½ tsp paprika
2 tbsp olive oil
4 tbsp unsalted butter, divided
Chef's tip
Use a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one.
5 cloves garlic, minced
¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped

Instructions

1
Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels, then toss them in a bowl with the salt, black pepper, and paprika until evenly coated.
2
Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until the butter is melted and the oil shimmers. Add the chicken pieces in a single layer — work in two batches if needed to avoid crowding — and sear undisturbed for 3–4 minutes until the undersides are deep golden and release easily from the pan.
