Can you pan sear chicken with no skin?

i have the boneless skinless chicken breasts and i was wondering if i could put them in a pan with some oil and sear a golden crust on them even though they have no skin....|||yes|||Yes, you can.|||Yes you can, I do it all the time.|||Yes you can, but make sure that the pieces are well washed in cold water(you never know how and by whom it was handled before you bought it) use Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper to give it good flavoring


and this will help to get a crust on it also, use tongs to turn the meat NOT a fork as it will pierce the meat and lose the juices. Just remember


that chicken breasts cook the fastest (within 20 minutes for both sides)


sear it on high, then lower the flame to med-low.|||yes|||You sure can. Heat the pan medium high, add the oil and when the oil ripples in the pan, it is ready for the chicken. A trick I use, pat dry the chicken, season and let rest at room temp for 10 minutes before cooking.|||Of course you can, but remember if the skin is not on and the bone is out, the meat will dry out really quickly if you%26#039;re not careful. Also if you want a %26#039;golden crust%26#039; then your best bet is to lightly dust the chicken breasts in flour, dust them off and drop them into some oil. Then when they are ready to turn over, do so and place a large knob of butter in the pan and spoon it onto the chicken. Cook until ready (depending on the size of the chicken breasts) and there you go...
