LORE'S PAN ROASTED CHICKEN BREAST
This delicious recipe was given to me by my aunt. Note: As of Nov 3, 2008, I've revised the recipe and directions so as to make them more clear on the advise of one of the reviewers. I've added an approximate weight to the 6 chicken breasts. As far as the pan goes, my favourite pans are well seasoned cast iron as they tend to be relatively nonstick and go from stove top to oven readily.

Tips:
- To ensure even cooking, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken breast. It should reach 165°F (74°C) in the thickest part.
- For a crispy skin, pat the chicken breasts dry before cooking and season generously with salt and pepper.
- If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you can use a regular nonstick skillet. Just make sure it's large enough to accommodate the chicken breasts without overcrowding.
- You can add your favorite herbs and spices to the chicken breasts for extra flavor.
- If you're using a boneless, skinless chicken breast, you can reduce the cooking time by 1-2 minutes per side.
- Serve the chicken breasts immediately with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
