1
First, prepare the chicken breasts. Using a sharp knife, slice each chicken breast in half lengthwise to create 4 equally thin cutlets.
2
In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, kosher salt, ground black pepper, dried parsley, dried thyme and cayenne pepper.
3
Rub the seasoning mix evenly over all of the chicken cutlets, making sure each piece is well-coated.
4
Heat the unsalted butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
5
Once the butter has melted and is properly heated, add the chicken breasts.
6
Partially cover the pan with a lid, leaving a small gap for steam to escape. Allow the chicken to cook undisturbed for 3 minutes.
7
Flip the chicken breasts, cover the pan partially again, and cook for another 3 minutes or until they're cooked through.
8
Remove them from the pan and serve them immediately as they are best enjoyed hot.
