I'm not writing an official recipe for this, because... it's just chicken. But it turned out pretty and it's what we ate for dinner so I wanted to show you the pictures. We used the Northwoods seasoning from Penzey's (pictured... blurry) and had Stove Top stuffing with the chicken. I know, I skipped the veggies, but wait until you see tomorrow night's dinner and you'll see plenty of veg.

For the beginners in the audience, this is what you do:
- Wash your chicken breasts and pat them dry.
- Put a little oil (I use vegetable oil... and there's too much in the photo, if you can tell) in a pan. Put it on medium heat.
- When it's starting to get hot, add the chicken (carefully... water + hot oil = ouch).
- Season the top of it and wait. Keep waiting. This is thick chicken... wait a little longer.
- Turn them over, season again. Wait some more.
- Turn them over a couple times. Eventually, cut into the thickest part of one of them to see if it's done. If it's not, keep waiting and turning. If it is, take them out and eat them.
Ta-da! Chicken.
For tagging purposes...
Total time: 15 minutes
Cleanup rating: 2/5 (If you clean the pan after you eat, you won't have to scrub hard or soak the pan, so don't forget!)
Difficulty rating: 1/10 (I didn't even bother writing a real recipe, so it must be easy!)
Flavor rating: 7/10 (I'm not crazy about the Northwoods seasoning, but it's pretty good. Also, the thick chicken breasts stay juicy, whereas smaller pieces cook faster but dry out a little more.)
