Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown. Remove the chicken and set aside.

Remove the skillet from the oven and sprinkle the cheddar cheese evenly over the chicken breasts.

Remove from oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the Sugar-Free Hunter's Chicken with your favorite low-carb sides or a fresh salad.
