Ingredients
4 large chicken breasts, about 2 lbs
Dry rub (black pepper, sea salt, chili powder, cayenne powder, ground cumin). I used about a teaspoon each of salt, pepper, cumin, and a tablespoon each of the chili powder and cayenne .
1/2 cup of lime juice (about 2 limes).
2 generous handfulls of fresh cilantro.
3 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tbsp of olive oil
Directions;
Rinse chicken and pat it dry. Put chicken in a zip loc bag and add dry rub. Gets your hands in there and make sure they're covered. Add lime juice, garlic, and olive oil. Let it marinate over night.
Heat pan over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts. Cook for just about 1 minute to help them get a little golden on one side (you are not actually searing or browning them). Then flip each chicken breast over.
Turn the heat to low. Put the lid on the pan. Set a timer for 10 minutes, and walk away. Do not lift the lid; do not peek.
After 10 minutes have elapsed, turn off the heat. Reset the timer for 10 minutes and leave the chicken breasts in the pan. Again, do not lift the lid; do not peek.
Serve with fresh cilantro.
