Place the chicken breasts in a mixing bowl. Season generously with fine sea salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and salt-free garlic and herb seasoning.

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a cast iron skillet or large pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the seasoned chicken breasts for 4 to 5 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F). Remove chicken from the pan, let rest for a few minutes, then slice into strips.
