Season and Cook Chicken
In a bowl, combine the olive oil and southwest seasoning. Coat the chicken breasts with the mixture, ensuring they are evenly covered. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
