     Title: Blackened Chicken Breasts
Categories: Poultry, Herbs, Chilies
     Yield: 4 servings

     1 tb Kosher salt
     1 tb Smoked paprika
   1/2 tb Dried thyme
   1/2 tb Dried oregano
   1/2 tb Garlic powder
   1/2 tb Onion powder
     1 ts Mustard powder
     1 ts Ground cayenne
     2 lb Boned, skinned chicken
          - breasts
     2 tb Vegetable oil

 Make the blackening seasoning: In a small bowl, combine
 the salt, smoked paprika, thyme, oregano, garlic powder,
 onion powder, mustard powder and cayenne.

 Carefully slice the chicken breasts horizontally in
 half, then pat dry with a paper towel. Thoroughly coat
 all sides with the blackening seasoning and set aside.

 Drizzle oil into a large skillet or cast iron pan over
 medium-high. When the oil begins to shimmer, carefully
 place the chicken in the pan and cook undisturbed for 5
 minutes. Watch out for any oil splattering and popping
 out of the pan. Cook until the seasoning literally
 darkens. After 5 minutes, flip the chicken and cook for
 another 3 minutes.

 Turn off the heat and leave the pan tented with aluminum
 foil for 5 minutes (this will help the chicken continue
 cooking from the residual heat without drying out).
 Remove the foil, then let the chicken rest for at least
 2 minutes.

 When ready to serve, slice the chicken on a bias into
 1/2" pieces. Serve immediately.

 TIP: About 30 minutes before prepping, remove the
 chicken from the refrigerator to allow it to come to
 room temperature.
