• Pound the chicken breasts with a meat mallet or a rolling pin, to tenderize the meat and ensure uniform thickness.
• Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of the chicken and let sit for 15 minutes or so.
• Heat a skillet over med-high heat, and add olive oil.
• When pan is sufficiently heated, sear chicken breasts over high heat.
• Allow about 2 minutes (until lightly browned) before turning to other side.
• Optional: Before serving, sprinkle grated cheese on chicken and broil for approx 5-10 mins (until cheese is melted).
• Serving suggestions: Serve this over pasta, or as chicken sandwich with fresh tomatoes, lettuce and mustard/mayo.

EASY BONELESS SKINLESS CHICKEN BREAST RECIPE

Steps:

• If the breasts are thicker than 3/4 inch, place them on a cutting board that is lined with plastic wrap. Add another piece of wrap on top of the breasts. Pound the breasts to 1/2 to 3/4 inch thin. Coat the breasts generously with EVOO on both sides. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside while you prepare the grill.
• Preheat your Foreman grill on high for approximately 5 minutes.
• Place the chicken on the grill and close the top. Grill for 4 to 5 minutes or until juices run clear. Check with a meat thermometer. You are looking for an internal temperature of at least 165°F.
• Remove the chicken to a platter and allow it to rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve with your favorite grain side dish and vegetables. I recommend fluffy quinoa or cous cous and grilled asparagus.

Flip and cook for another minute. Add the chicken stock, cover with the lid and transfer to the oven. Cook, covered, for 8 minutes.
• Set the skillet on the stovetop (no heat) with the lid still on; let sit for 8 minutes more, without lifting the lid. After 8 minutes, the chicken should be at 165 degrees F. Slice and serve.

• Change the oven setting to Broil and broil the chicken for 1 - 2 minutes or until the surface becomes slightly charred. Remove from oven, top with chopped parsley and serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges. (DO NOT discard the juice seeping out of the chicken. Serve the chicken with the juice.)

• Pat the chicken breasts dry and place them skin side up over the sauce. Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle them liberally with salt and pepper. Cut the lemon in 8 wedges and tuck it among the pieces of chicken.
• Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken breasts, until the chicken is done and the skin is lightly browned. If the chicken isn't browned enough, put it under the broiler for 2 minutes. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot with the pan juices.
