Given the choice between white and dark meat, I will always choose dark. However, during a busy week, throwing a piece of chicken breast in a pan is the easiest way to add lean protein to a meal. What I love about this quick and easy recipe is how much flavour it adds to the white meat. You can prep the blackened spice rub in bulk before hand, store it in an air tight jar and it cuts down prep time even more. Cooking the chicken on a cast iron pan produces a nice sear, but if you don’t have one, bake the chicken in the oven at 350 degrees for 35 mins.
