  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest

Instructions

  • Season & Prep Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness. Season with salt, pepper, and the Grace pimento‑ginger‑garlic blend. This adds warmth and depth while keeping the dish classic.
  • Sear the Chicken Heat olive oil and butter in a skillet. Sear the chicken 3–4 minutes per side until golden. Remove and set aside.
