Easy Chicken Breast Recipe (en-US)
Ingredients: 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 lb / 450 g), 1–2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp paprika (optional), and 2–3 tbsp lemon juice or chicken broth. Optional: 1 tbsp butter, chopped parsley. Instructions: 1) Pat chicken dry. Season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. 2) Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook 4–6 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until browned. 3) Add lemon juice (or broth) to the pan, reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and cook 3–6 minutes more until fully cooked. 4) Rest 5 minutes, then slice and spoon pan juices over the top. Food safety: Cook chicken to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). If it’s not there yet, continue cooking in short intervals and recheck. Serving ideas: Serve with rice, roasted vegetables, salad, or pasta. For extra flavor, finish with a small pat of butter and parsley.

Quick Tips for Tender Results
Use even thickness for more consistent cooking—pound thicker parts to match. Don’t overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if needed. Resting helps keep juices in the meat. If using lemon, avoid burning by lowering heat after searing.

Professional-care note (Health)
If you have a medical condition that affects diet (e.g., kidney disease requiring sodium limits) or you’re managing food allergies, adjust salt/seasonings and verify ingredient safety. For immunocompromised individuals, follow strict food-safety practices and avoid undercooked poultry.
