Ingredients
- 4 Chicken breasts

Instructions
- Rub the chicken breasts with garlic powder, a pinch of salt and pepper, and half the smoked paprika. Inhale the aromatic spices as you heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Brown the chicken for about 5 minutes on each side until they take on a beautiful golden color.
