Pan-Seared Chicken Breast Strips


  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 1x

Description

Quick and easy pan-seared chicken breast strips seasoned with simple spices, perfect for salads, wraps, or as a protein-packed snack.


Ingredients

Scale

2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound), cut into 1/2-inch wide strips
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper


Instructions

Pat the chicken breast strips dry with paper towels.
In a medium bowl, combine the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the chicken strips and toss to coat all pieces.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the chicken strips in a single layer without overcrowding the pan.
Cook the chicken strips for 4 to 5 minutes on one side until golden brown.
Flip the strips and cook for an additional 4 to 5 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
Remove the chicken strips from the skillet and let them rest for 2 minutes before serving.
