Notes

To cut the chicken in half lengthwise - place one hand flat on top of a chicken breast and, holding your knife parallel to the cutting board, slice it horizontally from the thick end to the thin end.
Avocado Oil - Better for searing as it has a higher smoke point than olive oil or butter.
Checking for Doneness - To properly check the meats internal temperature, you need to check the temperature of the center of the meat.
Nutrition - Calculated based on 12 ounces of chicken breast used for entire recipe and ¼th of sauce per person.
