Easy 3-Ingredient Grilled Chicken Breast
Ingredients
  • 1 lb chicken breast
  • 1 tsp sea salt or kosher salt
  • 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • Vegetables of your choice, chopped and ready to grill
Instructions
  1. Place cast iron skillet on stove top and bring to medium high heat (My stove is numbered so I put mine on 6/10).
  2. Season chicken breast on both sides with salt and pepper, use tongs to flip.
  3. Using tongs, move the chicken from the plate into the skillet and do not move for 5 minutes.
  4. Flip the chicken breasts to the opposite side and grill for 5 minutes.
  5. Flip the chicken breasts on their side and grill that as well.
  6. Chicken needs to be at an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit, or is fully cooked when all the juices run clear.
  7. You can lower the heat to medium (or a 4) while chicken is cooking through.
  8. Add vegetables once the chicken is almost done, sear and move to a clean plate.
  9. Once chicken is fully cooked, move to a clean cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes.
  10. Cut and serve or put into food containers for meal prep. Do not put in the fridge until chicken cools completely.
