Step 1

Preheat oven to 450°F

Step 2

Using a meat mallet or rolling pin, hit each chicken breast to about 1 ½ cm at the thickest part. Make they are all the same thickness to ensure even cooking.

Step 3

Combine Cajun Seasoning, brown sugar, and salt if using.

Step 4

Line a baking pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Alternatively, bake directly in a baking dish.

Step 5

Transfer chicken to the pan and toss with seasoning mix. Drizzle with the oil and rub seasoning all over to coat evenly.

Step 6

Bake chicken in preheated oven for about 18 minutes, or until internal temperature is 165°F (75°C) using an instant meat thermometer.

Step 7

Broil on high during the last 2-3 minutes of cooking until golden and the edges begin to caramelize.

Step 8

Remove pan from oven. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 9

Melt the butter in a small pan. Add the garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, but don’t let it brown. Combine the garlic butter with any pan juices and drizzle over chicken.
