Pan-Seared Paprika Chicken

Pat the chicken dry with paper towels.

Mix all dry rub spices (paprika, garlic and onion powder, brown sugar, salt, cumin, chili powder) in a small bowl.

Coat chicken evenly with the spice rub.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

Place chicken skin-side down in the hot pan.

Sear until skin is deeply golden, about 6–7 minutes.

Flip and cook another 6–8 minutes until cooked through.

Rest chicken for 3 minutes before serving.
