Steps:
- Preheat convection oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Rub chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle both sides with salt and Creole seasoning. Place chicken in a broiler pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Flip chicken and cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Remove chicken from pan. Pour water into the pan, while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add more water if needed to dislodge the browned bits; serve alongside chicken.

Steps:
- Trim fat from chicken thighs. Place the thighs and the rest of the ingredients in a large bowl and mix thoroughly, making sure that chicken thighs are covered with oil and spices really well.
- Cover the bowl with a plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. If you are in a rush, you may skip this step, but the chicken will be more flavorful if you let it marinate in oil and spices.
- Preheat a large skillet with a tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. We find that a non-stick skillet works better if you are after a nice brown color but a cast iron or copper pan will work as well.
- Place the chicken thighs on the skillet, one at a time, making sure they are not folded and ensuring that they lay flat on the skillet. Sear chicken thighs for 1 minute or so per side, until nicely browned.
- Reduce heat to medium and continue cooking for another 4 minutes, flipping chicken thighs twice during the process.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the skillet with a lid and continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes, until fully done (internal temperature 165 F).
- Serve with your favorite side dish. Sprinkle with chopped green onions and Italian parsley (optional).
