- Brine - put chicken breasts in large bowl with salt, sugar and luke warm water. (20min to an hour but no longer)
- Remove and discard brine. Rinse chicken and pat dry (important)
- Slather with olive oil and then liberally coat in Old Bay or Cavender's seasoning (or your favorite)
- Preheat oven to 375.
- Fire up the cast iron skillet on med heat with a little bit of oil to coat the bottom.
- Sear breasts for 3-4 minutes per side. You want them to almost get to the color you want when you eat them. Color won't change much after the sear.
- Move skillet from stove to oven for about 15-20 min, adding two ice cubes before shutting the oven door (It's OK, just do it)
- Cook to 160 because you'll get a carryover of at least 5 degrees getting you likely above 165.
