To begin with this recipe, we have to first prepare a few components. You can have the best blackened chicken using 3 ingredients and 8 steps. Here is how you cook it.
The ingredients needed to make The best blackened chicken:
- Get boneless skinless chicken breasts
- Prepare 3 Tbsp blackening seasoning
- Get 2 Tbsp vegetable oil (divided)
Both are great options because chicken thighs are already juicy and chicken cutlets become incredibly tender by pounding them to an even thickness before cooking. Toss the chicken in the spices, making sure that each fillet is evenly coated. Heat a large heavy based frying pan over high heat until very hot. Add the oil and fry chicken fillets on each side.
Instructions to make The best blackened chicken:
- Filet the chicken or pound out flat so that it will cook more evenly.
- Place the chicken on a plate. Rub 1 Tbsp of the vegetable oil onto both side of the chicken breasts.
- Spoon the homemade blackened seasoning over the chicken and spread around onto the chicken (on both sides). I use ½ tablespoon per piece of chicken (adjust based on your preference). The more you use, the spicier it will be and the less you use the milder it will be.
- Heat up a cast iron skillet so it is hot and spread the remaining vegetable oil onto the bottom of the pan.
- Place the chicken on the hot cast iron pan and let it cook for 5-6 minutes. Time it and don’t move the chicken, so it can get that beautiful blackened crust on it.
- Flip and cook another 5-6 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of at least 165 degrees F.
- Remove and allow it to cool for a few minutes. Serve immediately and enjoy!
- Notes-Refrigerate the leftovers in an air tight container for up to 5 days.
