4 chicken breasts (6-8 ounces each)

Preheat the oven to 200C/400F. Grease a non-stick skillet and set aside.
Gently pound the chicken breast fillets to around an inch in thickness.
Rub olive oil over them.
In a small bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Rub the spices over both sides of the chicken breasts.
