Add 2 chicken breasts to a bowl, drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, 1 tsp oregano, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tbsp smoked paprika, ¼ tsp baking soda, the zest & juice of a lemon, and optional: 2 tbsp plain yogurt. Mix well, and make sure the chicken is at room temperature.
Let this marinate for 30 minutes (outside of the fridge).
Bring a pan to medium heat. Once it’s hot, place the chicken in the pan. Cover with a lid and cook for 3 mins on the first side.
After 3 mins, flip it, cover with the lid, reduce heat to MEDIUM-LOW, and let it cook for another 7-8 mins.
After 7-8 minutes remove the chicken from the pan, place it on a cutting board or plate, and let it rest for at least 5 minutes.
After resting, slice the chicken breasts against the grain and serve.
