Ingredients

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, pounded 1/4-inch thick
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 tablespoon avocado oil

Instructions

  • Pound the chicken to and even 1/4 inch thickness between two pieces of plastic wrap. I often use a rolling pin or large bottle in this task. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Heat a large pan over medium-high heat and when hot, add the oil. When hot, lay chicken in the pan. Keep the chicken in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes per side. Place on a serving plate.
