Regular olive oil, for cooking
Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
Season the chicken breasts generously on both sides with salt and pepper. Add about a tablespoon of regular olive oil to a large skillet set over medium high heat. Cook the pound of chicken breasts until deeply browned on both sides, about four minutes per side. Transfer to a platter and hold in a warm oven (170 degrees) until ready to serve.
