Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 4 slices Loaf of sourdough bread
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Start by pounding the chicken breasts to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch. This ensures they cook evenly and quickly.
Step 2
Season both sides of the chicken with salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
Step 3
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil and butter. Let the butter melt and combine with the oil.
Step 4
Place the chicken breasts into the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes on one side without moving them to allow a golden-brown crust to develop.
Step 5
Flip the chicken and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C). Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Step 6
While the chicken is resting, toast the sourdough bread slices to your desired level of crispness. Use a toaster or skillet as preferred.
Step 7
Spread mayonnaise evenly across one side of each toasted slice of bread.
Step 8
Slice the rested chicken breasts into thin strips and evenly distribute them on top of the toasted and prepared bread slices.
Step 9
Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top as an optional garnish for added freshness and flavor.
Step 10
Serve immediately and enjoy Heather's Awesome Chicken on Toast!
