Ingredients

For this scrumptious dish, you’ll need the following ingredients:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Now, let’s get into the preparation!

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with Cajun seasoning, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Add salt and pepper according to your taste.
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they have a beautiful golden-brown crust.
Once seared, transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C).
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, making your chicken even juicier.
Finally, garnish with fresh parsley if desired, slice, and serve with your favorite sides!
