Ingredients
  • 4 bone-in chicken breasts
  • ¼ teaspoon of garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon of onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon of paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon of white pepper spice
  • ¼ teaspoon of black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon of sea salt (I used Himalayan)
  • 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter (or ghee) for rubbing
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 F
  2. Mix all seasonings/spices together in a small bowl.
  3. Dry rub the chicken with the mixed seasoning from top to bottom until fully covered
  4. Spread the butter over the chicken and seasoning covering it top to bottom, using about a ½ tablespoon for each chicken.
  5. Place in a non-stick or cast iron pan and pan-sear chicken on high for 4 mins each side until slightly browned.
  6. Keeping the chicken in the oven safe pan (breast side up), transfer it to the oven and bake at 375 F for about 45 minutes until no longer pink.
  7. Turn oven to a broil and place chicken on top rack of oven and broil for another 3-5 minutes until tops are crispy.
  8. Optional: Use leftover chicken juice from the pan to make a gravy by pouring it into a ceramic cup and adding about a tablespoon of flour to it and then stirring to thicken it up. If chunky, add to a pan on low heat, add milk, and stir until creamy.
