  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees f.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk your sea salt, pepper, cayenne, garlic powder and smoked paprika.
  3. Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board, cover with plastic wrap and pound lightly so your chicken is an even thickness.
  4. Pour the oil in a 13″ x 9″ baking dish. Add in the chicken breast and lightly dredge to coat well.
