Pas a pas

  1. 1

    Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and black pepper.

    Uns 2 min

    Nota de cuina: Drying the chicken helps it brown better in the pan.

  2. 2

    Spread the all-purpose flour on a plate and dredge each chicken breast, coating it lightly and shaking off any excess.

    Uns 3 min

  3. 3

    Melt the butter in a large skillet with a lid over medium-high heat.

    Uns 1 min

    Nota de cuina: Use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan for extra flavor.

    Uns 2 min

  7. 7
