Updated at: Thu, 17 Aug 2023 06:03:57 GMT

Step 1

Pound the thicker end of the chicken to make both sides leveled out so they cook evenly.

Step 2

Fill a large bowl with 6 cups of lukewarm water and add 1/4 cup kosher salt, stir to dissolve.

Step 3

Add the chicken breasts to the water and let them sit, refrigerated at least 1 to 1 1/2 hours to brine. Remove from water, pat dry with paper towels and discard the water.

Step 4

In a small bowl combine 3/4 teaspoon salt, with the remaining spices. Spritz the chicken with oil and rub all over, then rub the spice mix over the chicken.

Step 5

Preheat the oven to 350F. Heat an oven safe or cast iron skillet over high heat for 5 minutes until it is very hot.

Step 6

Place the chicken on the hot skillet, and cook for 1 minute. Turn, and cook 1 minute on other side.

Step 7

Transfer skillet to the oven and bake until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear and a thermometer reads 165F inserted in the center, about 8 to 10 minutes.
