Step 1

Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees. Heat an oven proof skillet to med-high heat.

Step 2

Cut off all the fat and any other bits you don't like.  Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides.  If you like, sprinkle the chicken with any other herbs or spices you want.

Step 3

When the pan is hot, add the oil and allow it to heat up for a min.  Add the chicken carefully so that the oil doesn't splash you.  Let it cook for about 3 mins or until it gets nice and brown underneath. Then flip the chicken to the other side.  Cook for 2 mins on the second side and then slide your pan into the oven.

Step 4

If your chicken is boneless, cook it for 6-8 mins in the oven or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees, then pull it out and let it rest for 10 mins before slicing it.

Step 5

If your chicken has the bone on it still, increase the time in the oven to about 12 - 15 mins depending on how big the chicken pieces are.
