In a small container, mix garlic granules, onion granules, paprika, black pepper, parsley, and salt.
Pat the chicken dry with paper towels then apply the seasoning on both sides of the chicken breasts evenly.
If you have the time, let the chicken breasts marinate for 20-30 minutes after seasoning. It will help them absorb flavor.
Pan sear- Add avocado oil to a cast iron skillet over medium heat. When heated, arrange the chicken breasts in the pan and cook for 3 minutes without moving then flip the chicken and cook for another 3 minutes without moving them
Bake- Place the cast iron skillet with chicken in the preheated oven then bake the chicken at 200C/400F for about 10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reads at least 165F. Use a good-quality thermometer for accurate readings.
Rest it and serve- After the chicken has reached a temperature of 165 degrees, take it out of the oven and rest it for 5 minutes. Once all the juices redistribute throughout the meat, you can cut it.

Notes
Experiment with different seasonings to add your unique twist to the recipe. For example, sometimes, I like to add some lemon pepper to the seasoning mix to make things a little more flavorful.
Cook the chicken to an internal temperature of at least 165F.
Ensure the pan is heated before adding chicken as this will help cook the outside of the chicken immediately giving it a good sear and preventing the juices from coming out.
If the chicken breasts are uneven, pound them with a meat mallet. This will even out the meat, ensuring it cooks evenly.
Rest the chicken for at least 5 minutes before cutting so the juice has time to redistribute inside.
