Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 400°
- 2. Using a thin, flexible knife, cut chicken breasts away from bones, leaving skin intact.
- 3. Place chicken between 2 sheets of plastic wrap.
- 4. Using a mallet or heavy skillet, pound chicken until 1/2-inch thick (which will help it cook evenly and stay juicy).
- 5. Season chicken with salt and pepper.
- 6. Dust with flour; shake off excess.
- 7. Melt butter in a small saucepan.
- 8. Spoon off milk solids (the white foam that separates from the butter) to make clarified butter. (It has a high smoke point and won't burn over high heat.)
- 9. Pour clarified butter into a large ovenproof skillet set over medium-high heat.
- 10. When butter begins to shimmer, place chicken in skillet skin side down.
- 11. Cook, occasionally pressing on chicken with a spatula so skin maintains even contact with skillet, until skin is brown, 5-6 minutes.
- 12. Transfer skillet to oven; roast until chicken is just cooked through, 3-4 minutes.
- 13. Remove skillet from oven; turn chicken breast over.
- 14. Let stand in skillet for 1 minute.
- 15. Transfer chicken to a plate and let rest for 5 minutes.
