Flavorful Skillet Chicken – Juicy, Easy, and Versatile

This skillet chicken is so full of flavor and compliments so many different dishes.  I personally use it in my Chicken Alfredo Bake, cut it up and throw some sauce on it for the BBQ Chicken salad or in by its self with a veggie and a starch like mashed potatoes or rice.  It is so delicious!

Notes

  • Always cook this skillet chicken in a fry pan, like this one, with olive oil.  There is something about the olive oil and seasonings that makes it taste just perfect and full of flavor. 
  • The measurements are just a formality for this recipe, but generally I combine all the seasoning together and rub it into the chicken.
