Instructions

1
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, stir together the olive oil, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub the mixture evenly over both sides of each breast.
2
Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat until very hot, about 2 minutes. Place the chicken breasts on the grill pan and cook undisturbed for 5–6 minutes, until the underside is deeply golden and releases easily from the pan. Flip and cook for another 5–6 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 165°F (74°C).
