If you’re looking for a meal that’s easy to make and utterly delicious, this one is sure to become your new favorite too!
Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or your preferred protein)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon butter (optional, for added richness)
Fresh herbs (such as parsley or thyme) for garnish
1 cup of your favorite vegetables (carrots, broccoli, or spinach work great)
1 cup of cooked rice, pasta, or quinoa (optional for serving)
Instructions:
Season the Protein: Start by seasoning your chicken (or chosen protein) with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Rub the seasoning into the meat for an even coating, ensuring maximum flavor.
Sear the Protein: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned chicken and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C). If you’re using a different protein, adjust the cooking time accordingly.
Add Vegetables: While the chicken cooks, prepare your vegetables. You can either roast them in the oven or sauté them in a separate pan with a little olive oil until tender. For a quicker option, simply steam the vegetables on the stovetop.
