Recipe by Sarah Fritschner
If using chicken breast, cut it into serving pieces to feed four.
Sprinkle chicken all over with salt, pepper, and thyme.
Heat olive oil in a wide skillet over medium heat.
Put chicken in skillet and cook without disturbing for about 5 minutes.
It should be an appetizing brown.
Turn it over and cook until done, which should be 6–8 minutes if the chicken pieces are 4 or 5 ounces and about 1 inch thick.
Serves 4.
