Categories     30-Minute Meals

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts (4 extra-large breasts or 6 average)
3 to 4 tablespoons olive oil
kosher salt, to taste
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
2 to 3 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons cumin
1 to 2 teaspoons paprika or smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, optional and to taste
freshly squeezed lime juice, to taste
2 to 3 tablespoons fresh cilantro finely minced, for garnishing; or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425F (use convection if you have it) and line a baking sheet with foil (optional but highly recommended, see Notes below)) for easier cleanup.
  • Place the chicken on the baking sheet, and pound to an even thickness. I use an empty wine bottle, but a meat pounder or tenderizing tool, a rolling pin, or a heavy frying pan all work. The chicken doesn't need to be pounded 'thin', but it needs to be of pounded to a uniform thickness so it all cooks through at the same time.
  • Evenly drizzle the chicken with olive oil and generously season with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • To a small bowl, add the remaining ingredients (except the lime juice and cilantro), stir to combine, and evenly spoon the dry rub over the chicken on both sides. I add a bit more to the side that's facing up than the side that's on the bottom in contact with the baking sheet.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through (165F) and done.
  • Evenly drizzle the chicken with fresh lime juice and evenly garnish with fresh cilantro. Allow the chicken to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing into it (cover with foil if desired to keep it warmer). Resting the chicken really helps lock in the juices and moisture so don't skip this step.
