For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes along with the garlic. Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the chicken to achieve a nice sear and prevent sticking. Serve with a side of crusty bread to soak up all the delicious garlic butter sauce. A dry brine overnight with the salt and pepper can help the chicken stay juicy during cooking.
