Heat a grill pan or large skillet over medium-high heat until very hot, about 2 minutes. Add the chicken and cook undisturbed for 6–7 minutes, until the underside is deeply golden and releases easily from the pan. Flip and cook for another 5–7 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 165°F (74°C).
